Zircon Crystal with Fluorescent Apatite Inclusions, in Biotite-Aegrine Matrix, Astore Valley, Pakistan

OLD EARTH MINERALS
Price:
$128.00

Description

Beautifully formed zircon crystal, with fluorescent apatite inclusions in biotite-aegrine-calcite schistose matrix.

The apatite fluoresces yellow/orange with 254nm short wave UV light. The calcite in the biotite-aegrine/calcite matrix fluoresces pink under 254nm short wave UV. PLEASE NOTE: This specimen only fluoresces with 254nm, short wave ultraviolet light. A filtered, high-quality lamp is ESSENTIAL.

Most multi-function, inexpensive UV lights, that claim to be short wave, are in fact either non-filtered, or not the correct wavelength.

Location:

Astore Valley, Astore District, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan

Size: 83 x 65 x 38 mm. 285 grams.
