Description/Interesting Notes:
A classic, old time example of wolframite after scheelite from Connecticut!!! This specimen hosts a large, complexly modified
crystal of scheelite that has been completely replaced by jet-black wolframite in association with a small amount of
quartz matrix!!! The scheelite exhibits several well defined crystal faces that are much more apparent in person!!! The crystal
appears to exhibit some octahedral features in a dramatically elongated form!!! This specimen is from the
collection of Fred Devito and retains his original label as well!!! Classic material!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
