Item Description
It is not often that one sees a good crystallized Powellite (a solid solution series member with Scheelite) outside of India, but even less common to find a fine quality Powellite on matrix! This piece hosts a 2.7 cm sharp, lustrous, light straw color, pseudo-octahedral crystal of Powellite associated sitting atop a radial spray of white colored Scolecite. Once again, nowhere in the world does Powellite occur as well crystallized or as large as it does in India. Don't miss out on this one, as they are becoming hard to find on the market. The Powellite fluoresces a bright yellow color under SW UV light. Priced at $1700.
