Beryl (Goshenite) with Scheelite and Muscovite
Mt. Xuebaoding, Pingwu Co., Mianyang Pref.
Sichuan Province, China
5.2 x 3 x2.7 CM (cabinet)
price: $170
Post Tucson 2022

A classic combination of species from the famed Mt Xuebaoding (Sichuan, China). Two small but gem-clear Beryl crystals show the classic flat/ tabular form of hexagonal prisms. The Scheelite is an incomplete crystal with excellent orange color and bright luster that is contacted on the back. The matrix is a mat of Muscovite crystals having a rusty color that sits on a massive chunk of country rock that has been sawn on the back, base and sides. These combination specimens have become less common lately and many have become quite expensive, this is a nice example at a relatively low price.
