Description

Beautiful and unusual combination piece from the famous Mt. Xuebaoding in China. The fairly large scheelite octahedron is mostly complete, and it has several terminations that are gemmy. This is a rare combination of Mica over Scheelite and not the other way around which is the normal and most usual type of crystallization. Further more the Mica is itself unusually and beautifully crystallized, with a somewhat stacked elongated, thin and leafy, translucent cluster shooting aesthetically from the vividly colored Scheelite crystal
