Nice scheelite from Xuebaoding, Pingwu. I can't remember having seen so many scheelite crystals on a single specimen from there before. The color is good.

Thank you, Carles.
I'm glad you like it.
I too was attracted by the richness of the crystals.

Thank you, Tobi and Philippe.
I'm glad you like these swords.
They were the last specimens placed on the middle (wooden) shelf.
I start the fourth (crystal) shelf of my first worldwide showcase.
Warm greetings.

Hello, Jordi. I was sure of your help.
Thanks for the correction of the Moroccan azurite locality.
The next azurite was bought together with the previous one: I suppose the locality is the same.
Warm greetings
