This is a great fluorescent Scapolite and Biotite crystal from Ontario. Fluorescent scapolite, often referred to by the synonym wernerite is a well-known, highly reactive fluorescent mineral found in Haliburton County, Ontario, particularly within the Bancroft area. These specimens are prized for their bright reactions under ultraviolet (UV) light.

Haliburton scapolite often fluoresces a bright yellow under longwave (LW) and midwave (MW) UV light. Some specimens, especially those from specific roadcuts, can exhibit a bright red or magenta color under shortwave (SW) UV light.

The specimen is in very good condition. Make this a special specimen in your collection.

Quartz from the Palermo #1 pegmatite in North Groton, New Hampshire typically occurs as clear to smoky hexagonal crystals with a bright vitreous luster, formed in pockets within a complex granitic pegmatite. These quartz crystals are often found attached to or associated with mica-rich schist, the layered metamorphic host rock composed mainly of mica and quartz, sometimes with sillimanite.

The site has been mined for various materials since 1863, including mica, beryl, and feldspar, and is now primarily known for its rich specimen variety, though it is not open to individual collecting.
