Scheelite with Calcite (Ref: 16.1-395-(CN3488))

Yaogangxian Mine, Yizhang County, Chenzhou Pref., Hunan Province, China
54mm x 51mm x 33mm
minID: XGF-A2V
A very fine Scheelite from the famed Yaogangxian Mine, ex Charles M. Noll collection. The Scheelite is very sharp and glassy, very large for this locality, and has a color that looks like a brown stout or root beer hue in reflected light. When backlit with a strong light source the color is more reddish-purple. Transparent on the edges but translucent overall the Calcite adds a very nice accent. The bottom of the piece is broken where it was attached but some of that area is recrystallized. Fine luster and great striations on the glassy faces help set this piece apart. From the "golden years" at Yaogangxian this is really fine for the locale and a choice dark Scheelite from any place. Sorry. This specimen has been sold. Please view alternatives below.
