I had to turn the lights off so
we can see these minerals show their hidden colors under
ultraviolet light.
New Pictures were taken using a
Sony Mavica FD83 digital camera.
Longwave UV pictures were taken
using a Tiffen Haze 1 UV filter in front of the objective
lens.
The left column lists different
mineral species. Each set of photos show how
they appear under normal light and ultraviolet
light.
