SMR17 Scheelite, Nelenite
Huanggang Mine, Hexigten Banner (Keshiketeng Co.), Ulanhad League (Chifeng Prefecture), Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China
7.5x 5.3x 2.8 cm
$395

An interesting combination of scheelite, garnet (the garnets are poorly formed, but make for an interesting combination nonetheless) and a rich crust of very rare brown nelenite.

The scheelites are very well formed, and have unusually smooth surfaces and sharp edges-- these are typically much more etched.

The presence of nelenite also makes for a particularly interesting piece-- the examples from this mine represent the best of the species, and this piece is particularly rich.
