My Dana .. Minerals ... says that Wulfenite is "an ore of Molybdenum with great variety and beauty of its specimens." Square tabular habit. Hardness 3, S.G. 6.7-6.9. Colours orange-yellow through green to brown. Lustre adamantine, or greasy. "The square habit, bright colour, and high lustre make it a most striking mineral."
