Rhodochrosite, Caryopilite, and Leucophoenicite

Item Description

From the famous N'Chwaning II Mine, this is a classic combination piece featuring Rhodochrosite associated with the rarities of Caryopilite and Leucophoenicite. The Rhodo clusters are up 8 mm across, with opaque cores coated by a gemmy and lustrous druse. The Rhodochrosite is evenly distributed across the matrix, creating a good aesthetic with its balance in size and spread. Akin to Calcite, the Rhodo spheres have a deep-orange fluorescence that adds even more to the quality and interest of this N'Chwaning small cabinet sized combo piece.
