[QUOTE="BigWave, post: 515504, member: 6786"] Hey LW, the Yanks seem to buy a lot then re-sell it globally for good/big dollars. I have specimens of calcite and fluorite, but this stuff nails those in terms of colour and brightness. Only my uranium ore glows brighter under my UVA light. Have now a mid-level UVC lamp on order. I'll let you know how things pan out. Hope to bring back a few buckets of the stuff. If so, will gladly send you some. PS: I also picked up a piece of surface quartz last weekend (at night) that glows a purplish colour under UV (very few do), only to find that it had some fungus on it. I scraped that off, and it stopped glowing. [/QUOTE]
