Yooperlite

Protection • Inner-Strength •  Finding Truth

Yooperlites are a Syenite rich Fluorescent Sodalite, also known as Emberlites, Sodalite-Syenite, or "Glowing Rocks".

They’re made up of mostly syenite rock and fluorescent sodalite, which glows a vibrant orange under Ultraviolet Light.

Yooperlite releases anger and negative thoughts.  It helps us release fears and phobias.  Brings clarity of mind and protects us from negative energy and influence.   Try meditating with Yooperlite at times when you need to find the truth in a situation or in what someone is saying.  Hold your Yooperlite and let it reveal what you need to know.

HISTORY
Yooperlites were discovered in 2017 in Lake Superior by Erik Rintamaki, a rock collector.  Yooperlite was named after Yooper, where Erik was born.  Erik was searching for Agates on Lake Superior, as they were becoming hard to find he took a strong UV light to see what other rocks could be found and very quickly discovered some glowing rocks. As an avid rock collector he wanted to know what they are, but after further investigation discovered they hadn't be identified before.  He has since found them in many other places where the rocks have been carried from Glaciers into Great Lakes.   

Scientifically they are Syenite Clasts containing Fluorescent Sodalite, or; Syenite rich Fluorescent Sodalite.
