Description
This dense specimenfrom Sterling Hill, NJ
has
white calcite, gorgeous rusty-colored
willemite, &
black
franklinite in
daylight photos #8 & 9.
Under short wave lamp the rock has patches of
bright green willemite
and
red calcite
(photos #1-4). It has some of the brightest willemite that we have ever seen! Photo #2 was taken with our SW lamp held at our normal position (just above & behind the camera), and some of the willemite glows so brightly it looks white! So I held the lamp literally at arm's length over my head in an attempt to capture the gorgeous
red
&
green colors
in the other SW photos.
Some of the willemite
phosphoresces
after the lamp is turned off.
Both minerals also glow brightly under our S2 Convoy long wave flashlight (photos #5-7).
The black franklinite is non-fluorescent.
Weighs 7.8 oz. & measures 2.5 x 1.75 x 1.375 inches. (#NJ-131).
