Nice type locality specimen of dark yellow weloganite crystal 2 cm long, displaying fluorescence under LW and SW UV lights.  This crystal show two fractures which may either have healed, as indicated by the white powder mineral partially covering it; or it has been repaired (very difficult to say).  Notice the SW fluorescence zoning of the broken crystal.
