30691 Chalcedony Specimen
large cabinet UV reactive fluorescent chalcedony

self-collected
size - 23 x 16 x 12 cm
weight - 3.6 kg (7lbs 10oz)

The photos and video (taken under normal and short wave UV light) were taken with the specimen dry. Ethically collected from one of my mineral claims in Virgin Valley, Nevada. No treatments beyond washing away the dirt. The specimen is reactive to both long and short wave UV light. The host material is rhyolite, a high silica mountain building volcanic. This piece will make a nice addition to your display both under normal and UV light.

"Chalcedony is a cryptocrystalline form of silica, composed of very fine intergrowths of quartz and moganite. These are both silica minerals, but they differ in that quartz has a trigonal crystal structure, while moganite is monoclinic. Chalcedony's standard chemical structure is SiO₂." Wikipedia

For my customers that are interested in the metaphysical aspects of gems and minerals, I searched on the internet to find chalecdony's properties. This is what I found . . .

"Chalcedony is a nurturing stone that promotes brotherhood and good will. It absorbs negative energy. It brings the mind, body, emotions and spirit into harmony. Chalcedony instills feelings of benevolence and generosity." www.charmsoflight.com
