I t is very difficult to get good photos of this CANARY YELLOW fluorescent Esperite, but this rock has a good amount in multiple areas of YELLOW alongside the fluorescent green Willemite. The yellow of Esperite is NOT like yellowish-green Willemite, it is definitely CANARY YELLOW.There are also crystals of a very dark red fluorescent mineral which logic would dictate is calcite, but it is darker red than any other calcite I've seen.Weight: 3 lbs. 10 oz.Approx. 4" X 3" X 3-3/4"Irregular shapePLEASE NOTE:1 - My father was the Franklin-Sterling Hill NJ fluorescent mineral collector. I inherited this collection in 1999. I am not an expert on these rocks, although I am learning a lot from the collectors. I will try to answer your questions, but you probably know more than I do already.2 - There are many appropriate fluorescent lights available online and on eBay, and many of them are better than the light I have.I used the camera on my Apple iPod and my father's old 1998 Mineralite to take all my photos. I have included a photo of the short-wave (SW) UV light that I used to take these photos.These minerals do not fluoresce with the same intensity (if at all) under a common fluorescent "black light" used for posters.3 - Immediate payment with PayPal required, please.4 - I'm sorry, but I cannot combine multiple auctions for shipping at read more
