A very cute Chinese scheelite! This specimen comes from the world’s premier scheelite locality near Mt. Xuebaoding. Perched on muscovite, this is a classic combo for the locale. This piece displays nicely as photographed or sitting on the matrix. While the bottom crystal is damaged, it does not take too much away from the piece. The prominent crystal has excellent color, luster, and gemminess. A classic!
