    FABULOUS & RARE,cabinet sized specimen, EXTRAORDINARILY BRIGHT YELLOW (short wave) powellite crystals, Nashik District ,Maharastra, India. The matrix is scolecite and calcite.
    The photos reveal the intense yellow under short wave ( photos 2 - 5 ). Under long wave the powellite fluoresces a light orange( photos 6 -8 ). The calcite retains a brief phosphorescence upon withdrawal of the SW lamp.
    I took the photos with my iPhone. I had trouble capturing the true beauty , detail and beautiful yellow color of the stone. So, in brief, the photos do not not do this marvelous specimen justice !  YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS SPECIMEN TO APPRECIATE IT'S OUTSTANDING BEAUTY!!!
    Short wave photos ( 2 -5 ) taken with Super Bright lamp, long wave( photos 6 -8 ) with 36 watt Way Too Cool lamp.
    Please note special UV lamps are mandatory to visualize the fluorescence.
