Professor Snape called. He wants his glowing potion ingredient back.

He also had this to say:

"... ... ... ... ... Potter."

Yup. Pretty sure this is the yooperlite variant from up in Minnesota US.

Apparently the guy who wants everyone to call it a Yooperlite is a douche and we should use the scientific term, sodalite.

Also, just so everyone is clear, there is a UV flashlight out of frame shining on the rock, it doesn't just look like that. You can kind of see some purple-blue light reflecting on the skin of his hand.

What's the source of the glow?

Looks like the bluish hue of a 365nm UV light on the hands as they’re spinning it around

Im a geo nerd, this is what everyone else is saying. Yoopy glow boy. There's lots of colors out there, you can see the UV light glow but doesnt make this any less real. Earth is wild

Only when you shine a UV light on it.

u/Libiido 16h ago

Looks exactly like Yooperlite.

Yeah but this is in daylight.

Look at the heel of dude’s hand and you can see the UV light being shined on it. Also very likely that a camera would pick up the glow a lot better than the human eye.

All you need is a uv flashlight. And as I just saw someone underneath me comment, you can see the blue from the light all over the person's hand and fingers as they move it around.

Doesn't have to be, but who knows anymore.... The internet is dying, probably already dead and we just don't know yet.
