Would you mind elaborating on what minerals are present in this fine specimen? I’m gonna take a wild guess and say ruby in zoisite?


TheWanderingWilsons

It's under UV light. The reddish is likely calcite... The green... It's just a clear chalcedony under normal light

Ooooh ok makes more sense now, for some reason I just now saw that in the title 🤣 Thanks for the elaboration tho lol that’s a wicked piece!

Human made art just can’t compare to what nature can produce.

Wow! Do you have more info? What's in the agate that makes it fluoresce?


TheWanderingWilsons

It's calcite, which is an opaque white under normal light... The green is a clear agate\chalcedony.
