Property of Tungsten Scheelite

Scheelite is a calcium tungstate mineral with the chemical formula CaWO4. It is an important ore of tungsten.Here are some descriptions about the Tungsten Scheelite.

Tungsten's crystals are in the tetragonal crystal system, appearing as dipyramidal pseudo-octahedra.There are some colors included,such as orange,yellow,brownish green and pinkish and colorless.Scheelite possesses distinct cleavage and its fracture may be subconchoidal to uneven. Its specific gravity is high at 5.9–6.1 and its hardness is low at 4.5–5.Aside from pseudo-octahedra, scheelite is thought to be columnar, granular, tabular or massive in its habit. Scheelite's refractive index  are both moderately high. These factors contribute to scheelite's high lustre and perceptible "fire", getting close to that of diamond.
