Selenite is the transparent crystalline variety of Gypsum, a hydrated calcium sulphate mineral capable of forming elongated crystals with pronounced growth lines, internal veils and stepped surface features.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis specimen from the Qinglong Mine in Guizhou, China displays golden yellow fluorescence within areas of the crystal when exposed to UV light, revealing internal features that are far less apparent under normal illumination. Fluorescence occurs when activators within a mineral absorb ultraviolet energy and subsequently emit visible light. Presented vertically on a custom clear acrylic and metal stand, this is an excellent display specimen for collectors interested in Chinese minerals, fluorescent minerals, Selenite crystals and unusual locality material. 💛🔦✨\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e⚖️ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 575gms - In Stand (sticky removable brown paper covering on acrylic stand)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e📏 Size: 19.5cm x 8.3cm x 8.1cm - In Stand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e🌍 Source: Qinglong Mine, China\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e🔮 Selenite: The Stone of White Light\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e💙💜🌟 Third Eye, Crown Chakra \u0026amp; Soul Star Chakras\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eThis remarkable Selenite specimen comes from the Qinglong Mine in Guizhou, China, and combines beautiful natural crystal growth with a hidden fluorescent feature that only reveals itself under ultraviolet light.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe specimen is dominated by a large, elongated Selenite crystal rising dramatically from its natural matrix. Beautifully transparent in sections, the crystal displays pronounced growth lines, internal veils, stepped formations and natural surface texture, giving you plenty to explore even before the UV light comes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the base, the main Selenite crystal emerges from a contrasting mineralised matrix with smaller pale crystals surrounding it. We have displayed the specimen vertically on a custom clear acrylic and metal stand, allowing the unusual shape and impressive size of the main crystal to be properly appreciated from different angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen comes the surprise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder ultraviolet light, areas within the Selenite reveal a golden yellow fluorescence, particularly noticeable through the upper portion of the crystal. Against the otherwise cool response under UV, these warmer internal areas stand out beautifully, revealing features that are far less apparent under normal lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelenite is the transparent crystalline variety of Gypsum, a hydrated calcium sulphate mineral. Its softness and perfect cleavage make large, well-preserved transparent crystals particularly interesting, as they can be quite delicate despite their substantial appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFluorescence occurs when certain impurities, structural features or other activators within a mineral absorb ultraviolet energy and emit part of that energy as visible light. In this specimen, that response adds an entirely different dimension to an already fascinating Selenite crystal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetaphysically, Selenite is traditionally associated with clarity, cleansing, peaceful energy and creating a calm environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor me, this is exactly the sort of specimen that makes collecting minerals so interesting. In normal light you have an impressive, naturally formed Selenite crystal from a recognised Chinese locality. Turn on the UV and suddenly it starts showing you something you couldn't see before. 💛🔦\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Divine Crystal Heart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54800559571168,"sku":null,"price":297.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/0871\/9000\/files\/QinglongMineFluorescentSeleniteHiddenGold1.jpg?v=1789180398","url":"https:\/\/divinecrystalheart.com.au\/products\/qinglong-mine-selenite-yellow-fluorescence","provider":"Divine Crystal Heart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
