Geological Marvel Found in Michigan: Lake Superior’s Glowing Rocks
Erik Rintamaki, a gem and mineral dealer from Michigan, discovered glowing rocks on the beaches of Lake Superior, which he named "Yooperlites" after the nickname for Upper Peninsula residents. These rocks, identified as syenite clasts containing fluorescent sodalite, emit a yellowish-orange glow under longwave ultraviolet light. Research from Michigan Tech University and the University of Saskatchewan confirmed the presence of sodalite, a mineral not previously documented in Michigan. Likely transported from Ontario’s Coldwell Alkaline Complex by glacial activity, Yooperlites are now a focus of Rintamaki’s guided tours and eBay sales, drawing global interest in Michigan’s unique geological finds.
