LW SW fluorescent TUGTUPITE - Taseq Slopes, Ilimaussaq complex, Greenland, Denmark

Red SW and orange LW fluorescent Tugtupite, with pale-blue fluorescent mineral (possibly Analcime or Chkalovite), uranyl-activated green SW fluorescence, and minor dark green crystalline Aegirine.

The Tugtupite is tenebrescent - assumes pink coloration after irradiation with SW UV.

Tugtupite is reported from only about 12 localities worldwide.
