Scheelite together with emerald, you don't see that combination often!
Really an incredibly beautiful combination specimen from Malipo, Don!
Best regards

Don, nice combination of species from the now classic deposit. Unfortunately, as far as I know, it was closed for extracting works in order to protect the Panda bears.

I agree.
Very beautiful and original one, for the elongated polycrystalline shape and zoned color.
Congratulations, Don.
Have peaceful holidays.
