Scheelite
Tae Hwa Mine, Neungam-ri, Chungcheongbukdo, South Korea

There was a time when Korean scheelites were some of the best in the world. While the amazing crystals from China have supplanted the Korean ones in that regard, Korean scheelites still have a place in any mineral cabinet. This miniature specimen is loaded with crystals to about 7mm on edge. The piece measures 3.6 x 2.7 x 2 cm. It has no damage. The individual crystals are somewhat color-zoned, running from a yellowish brown in the core to darker brown at the tips.
