Excellent and quite aesthetic older Yaogangxian mine specimen featuring a large doubly-terminated quartz crystal studded with dozens of gemmy, lustrous brown scheelite crystals and an approximately 4 cm. gemmy purple fluorite crystal. Charlie purchased this from Collector’s Edge around the year 2005 or so when the Yaogangxian mine was really producing large volumes of fantastic minerals, and it comes with a CE retail label. Classic!! Mark Cross photo.
