Large 4.5cm Scheelite crystal that is partially coated by Lollingite associated with green Quartz over Magnetite. The Scheelite crystal is partially etched, revealing a metallic silver-colored mineral (looks like Molybdenite) that formed as an epimorph of the Scheelite and was later covered by another layer of Scheelite. An interesting specimen that also has visual pizzaz due to the shiny Lollingite and green Quartz. Other Scheelite are present and completely covered by Lollingite. Valued at $400.
