Xuebaoding Scheelite for Sale
Curated by Maggie Liu · 57 specimens available
Xuebaoding, on the slopes of Mt. Pingwu in Sichuan, produces the world’s most recognizable scheelite: glowing orange, tabular bipyramidal crystals perched on silvery muscovite books, often alongside jet-black cassiterite from the same pockets. The color — somewhere between honey and tangerine — is unmistakable, and fine pieces fluoresce a soft blue-white under shortwave UV.
