TB11AA0: Scheelite with Andradite, Epidote and Chlorite

Pyramidal transparent Scheelite crystals, one of them clearly dominant, with a very clear yellowish-green color. They are on matrix, with Andradite, Epidote and Chlorite. The Scheelite is intensely fluorescent under a short wave ultraviolet lamp. Little or nothing of this has been previously seen. The Scheelite from this locality can be considered as a kind of novelty in the mineral world.
