Description |
This interesting combination piece was found in the summer of 2012, and has a "drape" of sharp Loellingite crystals covering the white Scheelite. Mixed in with that drapery of Loellingite are sharp, disc-shaped crystals of manganoan Calcite that fluoresce orange-red in contrast to the white fluorescence of the Scheelite. |
