Scheelite With Fluorite on Quartz
Camp Bird Mine, Ouray County, COLORADO!
Small Cabinet, 8.0 x 7.2 x 6.5 cm
SOLD
On a matrix of sugary-looking, white quartz are aesthetically perched, several, brown, lustrous, scheelite crystals, to 2.5 cm across. All the sparkly, sugar-like material from the halfway point of the piece down is a thin druse of colorless, beautiful, sparkling FLUORITE overlaying the quartz matrix and part of the scheelite pocket! The scheelites are supremely good for the locality and have a rich wet luster to them! This is a spectacular specimen for the locality for both the size overall and the perch on quartz as you see it. Most unusual also, because of the fluorite association. A few scheelite crystals are even doubly terminated. Normally the Colorado scheelites do not do a lot for me, but this is special! Comes with base.
