Something a bit different from the famous Mount Little Xuebaoding scheelite locality! Many collectors are familiar with scheelite octahedra and tabular aquamarines from this locality, but about 15 years ago I obtained a group of specimens from the locality quite rich in tourmaline needles...and I haven't seen any more of this type since then. This self-standing specimen is a 'wall' of silvery gray muscovite, with a prominent course of tourmaline needles. Under hand lens magnification some of these needles are transparent root beer brown. Light brown and mostly opaque but sharply crystallized scheelite octahedra are clustered together. As is typical for the species and locality, these scheelites glow a brilliant blue-white under shortwave UV. Excellent condition.
