This specimen is from Sterling Hill Mine, New Jersey. The minerals present are Bustamite (glows red/pink under SW) point left of center, Hardystonite (dark blue - SW) through center of specimen, Wollastonite (orange/yellow - SW), Willemite (green point - upper center - SW), Gahnite - non-fluorescing dark green crystals, Friedelite - non-fluorescing gemmy red crystals.
The first photo was taken under short wave ultraviolet lighting and should be the photo you look at to see the fluorescent colors referred to above. The photo below was taken under normal lighting.
An added bonus of New Jersey specimens, is that the Willemite present will phosphoresce, in the dark, for a short while after the lights are turned off.
