minID: 1X3-EU6
A silicate containing tin and beryllium. Quite rare and only found in Greenland. Nice grey/white fluorescence under both shortwave and longwave UV light. Longwave (365nm LED) photo is with a 420nm yellow filter: there is a lot of blue, which I don’t understand if it is reflection of the UV light or fluorescence. Under longwave part of the sorensenite fluoresces a more yellow/orange color. Apart from the Sorensenite there are a number of non-identified minerals, some fluorescent, some not.
