Tungstate & Molybdate Specimens for Sale - Collector Quality Specimens
Tungstate and molybdate minerals are defined by tetrahedral anions - (WO₄) and (MoO₄) - combined with metals. They typically form in hydrothermal veins, skarns and the oxidised zones of tungsten and molybdenum ore deposits. Key species include scheelite and wolframite-associated tungstates, plus molybdates such as wulfenite and powellite. Many are brightly coloured, fluoresce under UV light, and are valued as important sources of strategic metals. For more information about tungstates and molybdates, click HERE.
