Abundant, translucent celestine spikes to almost 2 cm associated with gypsum variety selenite crystals to 2.6 on a matrix containing massive sulfur. Glows white under longwave UV (blacklight) and brighter so under shortwave UV; the latter also causes phosphorescence lasting several seconds (rather long for the species!). The specimen is in superb condition and sits perfectly for display on its naturally flat base. Previous dealer label with a $95 price tag.
