A number of minerals contain trace elements that will
fluoresce when illuminated by ultraviolet light. Up to
90% of these minerals will reveal their vivid colors
under short-wave ultraviolet, and the remaining 10-15%
can be seen in long-wave ultraviolet. Small (1-1/2" by 6-1/2"
by 1-1/2") and lightweight, this handheld, battery-operated
long- and short-wave combination ultraviolet lamp comes
with the short-wave minerals kit, so that you can view
the fantastic glowing colors right away! The short-wave
kit contains six minerals -- agrellite, chalcedony,
halite, scheelite, tremolite/tirodite, and
willemite/calcite. Each stone is about 1" square (but
sizes vary) and is marked with its name and the location
in which it was found.
Extra care should be taken in the use of short-wave ultraviolet lamps,
especially around children, because it is short-wave
ultraviolet light that causes sunburn. Please note: battery-operated
UV lamps will illuminate to a distance of 2-3" and a circumference
of 1-2", depending upon conditions. If you need a stronger
lamp, try a Rechargeable Combination Lamp. Requires 4 AA
batteries (not included). The UV lamp and
mineral kits are also available for individual purchase.
