About Scheelite Group
Formula:
A(XO4)
A group of tetragonal molybdates and tungstates with the general formula given above, where A denotes a relatively large divalent cation (e.g. Ca, Pb) and X is molybdenum or tungsten (Mo, W).
A large number of synthetic scheelite-type compounds and derivatives of the scheelite structure are known.
A large number of synthetic scheelite-type compounds and derivatives of the scheelite structure are known.
