About this specimen

Xuebaoding, Sichuan, scheelite at 6.3 cm and 261 g; a small cabinet piece. A large honey-orange scheelite crystal with glassy faces and a sharp pyramidal form; the supplier notes a mining-contact base.

Scheelite forms pseudo-octahedral bipyramids in Chinese tungsten deposits and fluoresces blue-white under short-wave UV.

The Xuebaoding veins of Pingwu County, Sichuan, produced the orange scheelite and muscovite-aquamarine combinations that put Chinese minerals on the map.

Dimensions place it in the small cabinet range, 6.1 × 2.6 × 6.3 cm (2.40 × 1.02 × 2.48 in) and 261 g (9.2 oz). Disclosed condition: a mining-contact base. The price reflects it and the photographs show the affected area. The specimen is otherwise sold in the condition shown.

Every specimen here is photographed and catalogued individually before listing.
