Item Description

Grizzly Bear Rhodochrosite specimens are among some of the most sought after San Juan Rhodochrosites by Colorado collectors. This specimen hosts several sharp, translucent, milky, lustrous, prismatic Quartz crystals creating a very attractive display specimen. Only one major crystal is broken on the display side, and that's is more than forgiveable considering that you don't see many Quartz specimens from the Grizzly Bear mine on the market, especially with the aesthetics of this piece. The Zanett tunnel is named after the family that owns the Grizzly Bear mine.
