A top combination specimen from Huanggang, consisting of a cluster of large (and very sharp) brown genthelvite crystals, perched on the end of a lolligite spray. There is also minor scheelite and some quartz, meaning that all the major Huanggang species (except fluorite) are included on this piece.
The piece is well balanced and very aesthetic, particularly for a combination of rarer minerals.
At this point, I have handled quite a few Huanggang specimens. In this size size range, particularly given the combination of species, I would consider this to be a top example.
