Fluorescent aragonite from Mexico

Very nice, large cabinet-sized specimen of stalactitic aragonite (aka "Cave aragonite"), from the Santa Eulalia Mining District, fluorescing under shortwave UV. Shown in visible light in the second picture, then the opposite side of the specimen is shown under shortwave UV and in visible light.
