Featured here is a mixed lot of two end cut pieces of fluorescent minerals for cab cutting rough, or fluorescent mineral specimens. They are:

The larger piece in this lot measures: up to 2-1/4" width by up to 2-1/2" length by up to 3/4" thick. This lot weighs approx. 11 ounces.
We use a 36 watt fluorescent lamp specifically designed for viewing displayed fluorescent minerals. UVC Shortwave-254 nanometers, UVA Longwave-365 nanometers. The lamp was built and designed by "Way Too Cool" of AZ.
Our minerals are photographed dry, and no type of of photo enhancement is employed, as it appears under our lamp is how it photoed and is presented on our listings. We display shortwave photos and long wave photos. Not all UV minerals fluoresce under all UV waves. These items will not fluoresce as shown in our photos with a poster lamp. They will fluoresce as shown if you are using a fluorescent mineral lamp, designed for that purpose.
We do our best to represent the true colors of our materials. Please remember there are many factors to consider, such as how your computer monitor displays the photos. Also SW minerals will not fluoresce with most of the UV flashlights.
100% satisfaction is guaranteed however, any unsatisfactory items must be returned within 30 days. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs incurred. Refund will be given as: money back, or exchanged merchandise. Please check out our other auctions, as we can combine shipping costs for multiple items.
We use bubble wrap to protect smaller and fragile items to insure safe shipping. All rough is photographed wet to show what the colors will look like polished.
