Excerpt from Colorado Ferberite and the Wolframite Series In the southwestern part of the field the narrower individual veins are made up almost wholly of ferberite, which has grown from both sides of the crevices and forms combs of small crystals that coalesce at their bases. The combs are of fairly uniform thickness, SO that although in the narrower crevices they may have met and grown together, in the wider cracks they form bristling crusts of crystals on each side. In places these crystals are clean and bright but generally very small, from one to three thirty-seconds of an inch (1 to 2 milli meters) across. Most of the crystals are covered with a coating Of impure chalcedony, which in some specimens is mixed with opal and in others contains much iron. The coating generally includes small. Crystals of ferberite, which are Of course of a later generation than those on the walls. Some vugs 3 or 4 inches across are entirely filled with such a mixture.
