5.8oz / 164.42g of Gorgeous, Bright "Yooperlite"!
Awesome patterned clasts! This bright lot is an excellent example of Keweenaw County, Lake Superior Sodalite-rich Syenite, from the Upper (Yooper) Peninsula of Michigan. Its where "Yooperlites" come from.
Pictures were taken by Convoy 365Nm Ultra Violet Flashlight. Please use a similar light to brighten and reveal the sodalite inclusion within these clasts. There are a lot of lights out there, they will produce a different... looking color. I've seen purple, orange, pink, yellow, white, blue, all from the same stone depending on the light.
The stones were dry for all of the photos, the last under natural lighting. Wet or polished stones appear brighter and more gem like.
A quarter and ruler were used to help indicate size.
Thanks for bidding! 😊
