Ulexite

What up everyone its the Crystal Chick!This rock is called ulexite, however it has a more common name-TV rock. it is called this because if you look at it form straight up and down over a paper or something with words on it, you can see through it to the paper and it looks like the words are being projected on a tv, hence the name.

This isn't the best sample since it has a lot of impurities, but you get the idea

Normal looking- it's actually clear!

this is a really short post but it looks cooler in real life and I don't really have anything else to say about this so... basisians will have to wait for my presentation to see those ;)

sneek peek into next week: my birthstone, an awesome (mostly red) stone that can vary from a light green to light pink to red in color.
