    1) under black light
    2) natural outside light
    And 3rd) normal natural light

    Can anyone tell me why the stone looks like this under the black light?
    I'm aware the different types of stones look different but I'm mostly seeing that blue is the color it should be. I am having to use a light that is not working 100% . It's weak. But all I have at the moment. How close should it be held to the light ?
    Thanks

    Many stones fluoresce under UV light, which is what you see in your first picture.
    Synthetic stones can also fluoresce.
    The distance is fine, since you have a result. Is there anything else you would like to know?
