Darker Brown and Dark Brown Swirl with Thin Reddish Lines

[The Nickel Guy]

This is 21/32 inch in diameter. So much nicer in hand.

These images are taken under flash and with natural light. If you look you can see some very thin red lines that are very UV reactive and glow bright orange. They are well defined thin lines, and almost an overlay close to the surface having a swirl pattern of their own.  They can be seen in the first picture in the first group of three. Not easily but they are there. They almost have that peltier feathered look to them we see on slags.

I would say this is very close to what this looks like in hand, quite dark.

I tried taking pictures with my blacklight flashlight but did not do a very good job but here's one shot.

In the last image, I am surprised how well the color showed up in an overhead shot within a group of other mibs. I show a second blown up image. Bottom row fourth column.

So my question is who made this marble please? I have no other like it and can't find another. 

I wish I could have presented it better. This is the best I can do. Thank you!

You're right, I can see it's tough to photograph - my first impression is JABO.

Thanks Ric!

It is surrounded by Jabo's that's for sure but to me it just has a bit of a different feel and look . . . and size, a tad bigger. I get a feel for something older but I don't know. Those glowing lines are so cool. I am going to see if I can capture them better. I do have another UV lamp to try.

Late Edit

I managed to get this image which kind of surprised me.

I also believe it is JABO

Jabo.  I think you are chasing the UV thing to no good end.

This image reminds me that it is winter and all kinds of dust will stick to almost anything in the dryer conditions.

Cool image--just dust imho.

Jabo--Yes!!

Marble--On!!
