Orellanite

Orellanite is a phosphorescent mineral found exclusively in Chile and Argentina, one of the rarest in the world. Its name comes from the town of Orellan, in Chile, where it was first discovered. Under UV light it emits a characteristic bright green fluorescence, making it an absolutely unique stone in the world of gemology.

Orellanite is a hydrated blue-green copper silicate with a resinous luster that makes it unmistakable. Its rarity makes it as valuable a collector's piece as a high-end jewel.
