Nature’s own display 📺 This is ulexite (also called TV stone or television stone). Although it looks opaque, it transmits the image lying underneath almost like a natural monitor. #Ulexite #TVStone #Mineral #Optics #CitizenScience

Ulexite stone is a mineral, it is not transparent but yet it projects an image of what ever is behind it onto its surface

In Geology ✔️ Mineralogy ✔️ Botany ✔️ #Mineralogy #Ulexite #Geology Ulexite: is a soft, translucent borate mineral found in evaporite deposits. Its fibrous crystals create a silky glow and an incredible optical effect, acting like natural fiber optics to project images through its surface. Chemical Formula: NaCaB₅O₆(OH)₆·5H₂O Usage: Educational Displays: Prized for its light-transmitting properties, perfect for geology demos and collectors. Boron Production: A source for borax, used in detergents, glass, and ceramics. Industrial Applications: Minor role in fertilizers and specialty chemicals. Note: Nicknamed the "TV Stone," Ulexite’s ability to transmit light makes it a standout in mineral collections. Handle with care, as its softness makes it prone to scratches!

🧐L'#Ulexite - une pierre possédant des propriétés optiques - notamment la capacité de laisser passer des images et de les refléter sur la face arrière du cristal. Pour cette raison, on la nomme aussi "pierre de télévision" #Crystal #fiber #optics #Awesome #rock #light #stone @YvesPDB
