    Classic Daylight + Shortwave & Longwave Fluorescent Mineral Specimen from Franklin, New Jersey!

    Excellent Coverage of Beautiful Daylight Silky Blue, Fibrous Magnesio-Riebeckite on a Fracture Face on 1 Side (Seen in the Last Pic)!

    Magnesio-Riebeckite of This Quality & Richness are Fairly Rare from Franklin, and This is also the Only Find of Magnesio-Riebeckite Intermixed with Willemite to Produce the "Blue" Willemite Seen on This Piece! Several Pieces of This Material were Collected in 2023 on the Buckwheat Dump Shortly After the Dump Was Turned with an Excavator at the Start of the 2023 Season! This is One of the Largest/Best Ones Found, and Also has the Best Coverage of the Fibrous Magnesio-Riebeckite of All That I've Seen!

    Fluorescent Daylight "Blue" & Red Willemite (Green SW & LW; The Blue is Really White/Clear Willemite Mixed with Blue Magnesio-Riebeckite), Calcite/Dolomite (Red SW) & Secondary Sphalerite (Blue, Pink & Orange LED LW Only - NOT VISIBLE under Non-LED LW)
    with Blue Fibrous Magnesio-Riebeckite (Intermixed with the Ore & also a Fracture Face Covered with Silky, Fibrous Blue Magnesio-Riebeckite Too!!!), Calcite/Dolomite & Black Metallic Franklinite (Type Locality)

    Locality: Buckwheat Dump, Franklin Mine - Franklin, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA
    Weight: 5 lbs. 4.6 ozs.
    Measures Approximately: 7.1" x 5.6" x 4"

    The First 2 Fluorescent Pics Show Shortwave UV Response & were Taken using a WayTooCool 35W SW/LW UV Light. The 3rd Pic Shows the LED Longwave Response using a Convoy S8+ LED LW Flashlight. Remaining Pics are Regular Lighting.

    Fluorescent Response will Vary Depending on Strength of Light Used, but Any Decent Light of the Proper Wavelength(s) Will Produce a Similar Response!
