Item Description
The Uchucchacua mine has produced some of the finest quality Rhodochrosite specimens around. Their attractive crystals combined with rich pink and red colors make for some beautiful display specimens. This small cabient size specimen hosts several sharp, lustrous, gemmy, reddish-pink color modified rhombohedral crystals of Rhodochrosite measuring up to 10 mm on edge on matrix. Most of the crystals are pristine and the piece displays well from a few angles. Enjoy.
