    Right on Derek, almost all you say is true. The CHiapas "green'
    though, is known as "green flash" and is a natural flourescence
    which is seen from the surface and normally NOT seen holding it up
    to a light. I work with a lot of that material and the theory is
    that it's caused by refraction of metal molecules...though it's not
    been completely established. You can see example of this cool
    phenomenan on my site: http://geocities.com/kirkstephany/tools.htm
