20 Piece South Carolina Fluorescent Stone Set - Vivid Pink Glow Under 365nm UV For Sale

This collection consists of approximately 20 smooth, water-worn pebbles and small cobbles, likely sourced from a South Carolina riverbed or coastal plain. The stones range in color from milky white and translucent cream to honey-yellow and smoky gray, with occasional iron staining (the reddish-brown patches).
Their rounded edges indicate they have been naturally tumbled by water over a long period. Many of these appear to be Quartz or Chalcedony, which are abundant in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain regions of South Carolina.Why Do They Glow?

Chalcedony/Agate: These can sometimes glow a dull green or yellow due to trace amounts of uranium or other minerals trapped during formation.
Petrified Wood: South Carolina has significant deposits of petrified wood. If the wood has been "silicified" (turned to stone by silica), it can sometimes exhibit a strong neon green or yellow glow under short-wave or long-wave
