A beautiful association specimen from Mount Xuebaoding in Sichuan, China, featuring a lustrous honey-coloured scheelite crystal prominently perched on a cluster of pale blue aquamarine crystals. The warm colour of the scheelite contrasts beautifully with the delicate icy-blue beryl, creating an attractive and highly collectible mineral combination.
The aquamarine forms a three-dimensional cluster of well-developed crystals with glassy lustre and areas of translucency. Positioned prominently among them, the scheelite provides a strong focal point and adds both colour contrast and mineralogical interest to the specimen.
Mount Xuebaoding is internationally renowned for producing exceptional alpine-type mineral specimens, particularly combinations of aquamarine, scheelite and associated minerals. This attractive example showcases the distinctive aesthetics and unusual mineral associations for which the locality is celebrated.
