This is a classic example of Scheelite from southeast Arizona. In the late 19th century there were many mines there producing tungsten ore. One of the smaller deposits, and not discovered until decades later, produced the most memorable specimens. This specimen is a classic from a prestigious collection. Scheelite crystals from the Cohen mine are prized by collectors and are almost never seen at shows or online.
This cabinet specimen is a vein section of scheelite. It is large, the size of the crystals from this mine are usually very small. This rare specimen has the classic deep orange color of Cohen mine scheelite. The faces on its top side are healed (recrystallized) & etched, while the bottom is a contact area. Off matrix.
Scheelite is well known as a fluorescent mineral, with fluorescent lamps being the best prospecting tool for scheelite. This scheelite specimen has bright blue-white fluorescence under a UV SW lamp.
