    Description

    Greyish brown translucent Chalcedony/Chert nodule. Nice size.
    It fluoresces a nice bright yellow under long wave UV light (Convoy S2), not much to no reaction under short wave UV.
    Found in Milwaukee co, Wisconsin along the lake Michigan shoreline.
    I am not certain of the reactive element that causes it but possibly a carbonate mineral.
    Chalcedony/Chert nodules like this are not that unusual of a find along the lake Michigan beaches but ones that fluoresce are. Some people call these agates, but I see no banding to call it that, so I will leave it as a Chalcedony/chert nodule.

    NOTE!
    Photos taken with a 365nm Convoy2 bandpass filtered Long Wave UV light, if you use any other type of UV light you may get different results.
