Description from the seller

Willemite through calcite matrix! With well developed franklinite crystals. Intriguing from all sides... American classic!

Shortwave:
WILLEMITE: Bright neon-green
CALCITE: Fury Reddish/orange

Longwave:
Same as shortwave but weaker.

Also a fosforescence reaction of the willemite (still glows for seconds long after shutting down UV light)
