[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 26012, member: 487"] Probably quite difficult in the field without dropping it or some other difficulty, I'll just be taking anything interesting home to inspect or have inspected later. UV light can make different types of stones fluoresce, some diamonds will but not all, I think most Zircons do and some Topaz. I've got a UV torch on the way 390NM, will post some pics of any fluorescent stones I have as a reference. Anyway better to keep anything interesting. [/QUOTE]
