# .....Minerals Species: SCHEELITE xls on matrix 

 Location of Mineral Deposit:   XUEBAODING MOUNTAIN, PING WUM, SICHUAN, CHINA

Description: These beautiful orange color crystals of Scheelite on matrix of Muscaovite (Mica) bladed crystals Fluoresces a kool Light Blue color under a Shortwave Ultraviolet Light.

The mining of these Scheelite specimens in China occurs at over 13,000 ft. above sea level at workings on Xuebaoding Mountain in the Hualong National Park. These are the same mines that produce beautiful specimens of aquamarine, cassiterite and the best examples worldwide of a couple of rare minerals, kesterite and mushistonite. In the forests of slightly lower elevation there are the famous nature preserves of panda bears. Some believe that the mining operations will eventually be closed to protect the habitat below.
