What is Pink Hemimorphite? Answer: It’s Complicated

This lovely stone is supposed to be a rare form of hemimorphite. We could not find any scientific data to back that up. It does seem to have the same growth pattern. In researching, we did find one gemological testing website that said hemimorphite is indeed found in pink. This may or may not be a good resource, but if you would like to see for yourself, click here. Since manganese is often the culprit for this color of UV fluorescence, if it is indeed a form of hemimorphite, it may form with inclusions of manganese. As we always say, when it comes to gemstone décor, it is always best to choose what you love. If it suits your style or brings you a smile, then it must be worth your while.

Please Note:

1. Sizes and weights are approximate. Dimension sizes can vary based on the way the rock is formed. We hand measure our pieces on the longest side. Please see the pictures in the listing.
2. The colors may vary due to monitor and lighting differences.
3. Please use your own judgment when allowing children to handle.
4. Not suggested for use in animal habitats or fish tanks.
5. UV Notes: For gemstones, 365nm is the best for UV lighting. Only some specimens illuminate under the other part of this spectrum (370-400nm). This is why some pictures are not as clear for our UV reactive pieces. Our current lights are at 395nm. For home use, the 395nm is less expensive, but in some cases, will need a zoomed beam on the flashlight style UV lights. If you do use a 365nm light, please take care to use eye protection.
