Imagine having a doubly-terminated Quartz floater liberally covered with a dozen sharp Scheelites up to .5 cm. The Scheelites are smoky with a beautiful translucence and a superb luster. Both the Scheelites and the small accessory Calcites fluoresce, and some of the Scheelites have the characteristic notching near the termination. Admittedly, there is some dinging to a few, but they really do not detract from the fact that this is an attractive classic from a famous old classic locality.
