This piece is one of the few found in spring 2025 that features a rich coverage of the very rare mineral Schubnelite (Fe3+(V5+O4) · H2O) – dark red crystals up to 1 mm , small but there are many scattered around on this piece. The other surprise, besides the yellow Carlhintzeite is that we discovered Thomsenolite for the first time in China. On this piece the pointed colourless crystals (mixed with yellow carlhintzeite) are Creedite, and the chisel terminated ones are the thomsenolite (confirmed on another piece of this find by EDX @Desor mineralanalytik.de)
