Never given them much thought, even though I have a blacklight. Mostly just for playing around with different gems. :)

Hey panner, that's a nice collection you have going! :)
ok the first mineral (reddish one) looks to be sodalite
The green one may be opal
The green, red and black looks like willemite
And the blue one looks like hydrozincite or scheelite. (I think more likely scheelite)
