Wavelite from Mt Ida, Arkansas - Longwave and Shortwave

Paul Garland was a prolific collector and photographer of fluorescent minerals. Sadly, he passed a while ago. I obtained permission from his sister to post a few of his best specimens and pics. Not many specimens of wavelite are fluorescent, but I've seen several from Mt Ida.
