Bright uncommon chondrodite, diopside and calcite. Fluorescent - Height: 11 cm - Width: 6 cm- 165 g

This is a fantastic specimen from the long lake zinc mine, Canada.
These pieces are known for the fantastic colors and patterns. They remind me of something from outer space like a star nebula.
Several minerals are present in this little art work.
Under shortwave, if present, the diopside will turn blue, chondrodite yellow, calcite orange/red, hydrozincite bright blue and aragonite white.
