This specimen is fluorite on calcite from Santa Eulalia, Chihuahua, Mexico.
The first image is taken under short wave ultraviolet light. The calcite on this specimen fluoresces red orange to pink. Some areas fluoresce almost a white to very light pink, possibly due to the light reflecting through a very thin coating of fluorite. The darker blue to purple color is the light reflectiing off the non-fluorescing quartz and matrix.
The image below was taken under long wave ultraviolet light. The fluorite fluoresces white to blue. The darker blue to purple color is the light reflecting off the non-fluorescing quartz and matrix.
To see images of this material under normal lighting conditions return to Mexico Fluorescents or the main fluorescent page and select the "To view specimen material from Mexico" link.
