Scheelite with Quartz
specimen number:
2451626
location:
Huya, Mt Xuebaoding, Sichuan, China
description: Exceptionally fine semi-lustrous slightly translucent beautiful orange steep pyramidal crystals of scheelite forming and aesthetic 9.0 x 9.0 x 7.0 cm cluster. A terminated gem quartz crystal 2.5 cm in length present on one side. Complete all-around and sits nicely by itself for display, I think this in very fine condition. This is even naturally crystallized with terminations on the bottom. Very distinctive crystal habit for this locality, I was told once that these came from a locality on the other side of a ravine or valley from where the mine is that produces most of the specimens. Ex Jordi Povill collection.
Size: 9.0 x 9.0 x 7.0 cm (small-cabinet)
