  • Bringing a UV light out at night can reveal a whole new world! In this case, while I was up in Michigan I went to the beaches of Lake Superior at night on the search for stones commonly called "Yooperlites". These are syenite rocks with fluorescent sodalite in them that creates the beautiful orange glow when shining a 365 Nanometer UV light on them. Enjoy, and don't forget to check out the links below!

    I'm not in Michigan right now by the way y'all. I filmed this when I was up there in June/July 😊 Hope y'all enjoy!

      Kyle, I'm just curious - do any of your yooperlites have blue specs in them? The reason that I'm asking is that I'm trying to determine if it's my UV light or the pieces of Sodalite that I have from the mine here in Ontario (maybe they need to be tumbled to work?) Anyways, thank you for another great video. I love seeing you out with your Mom and that you have footage from more adventures on your holidays back in the early summer

    All those little yoops would look great in a glass jar where you could shine the UV on them in a dark room for a bit of glowy atmosphere. Thanks to your mom for helping with the light work, and thank you for this fun video!

    There's the Wyld child and his Lovely Mom out with the forest children rockin' Michigan Eups!! Another great video my friend and the stones that you found were beautiful. As many have mentioned before they would actually make some very nice jewelry pieces. I hope that it won't be too long before you can go back, although it is a LONG road trip. Thank you for letting us tag along, it's always a joy to see your adventures. Stay safe and HAPPY HUNTING!!!

    Would the glow show up in UV light used in clubs and such? Because in that case the small ones would make rather cool jewelry, I was thinking.... Oh, and please lend your mom to me, I want someone to go rock-hunting with too! ;)

    365nm UV lights.
    In one of our State Forests. 🙂

    You need to hunting around the closed zinc mines in Sterling and Franklin NJ. It is really quite insane. They open the Buckwheat tailing pit after dark the first Saturday of each month.
    Luckily I live just a couple miles from those.

    Light orange i believe is feldspar. The blue/violet is I believe is fluorite. Shelite also fluoresces blue. This is my research. So, more experienced rock hounders please correct me if wrong. I am by no means an expert.

Not tryna advertise but check out my yooperlite vid if ur bored just recently finished it. Its nothin special just clips thrown together from my spring finds. Come up in march/April right after thaw you can find bigger size and quantity , just have to dress warm✌. Your camera is 100x better than mine at night 🙈
