Item Description

The Zanett tunnel is named after the family that owns the Grizzly Bear mine. Rhodochrosite specimens from this mine are among some of the most sought after San Juan Rhodochrosites by Colorado collectors. This specimen hosts tiny, sharp, lustrous, soft pink rhombohedrons of Rhodochrosite sitting on sugary white Quartz matrix. A beautiful small miniature sized specimen of this classic material. Good quality and eye-catching, and impossible to find on the market these days.
