Locality: Qeqertarsuatsiaat area, Nuuk, Sermersooq, Greenland (See on Mindat)
Description:
Very fluorescent under longwave, these ruby specimens are hard to come by. A Canadian company has locked down the area where we used to collect and very few specimens are found on the market today.
Fiskaenesett is the Danish name for the Greenland settlement, Qeqertarsuatsiaat.
