Item Description

The Sunnyside Mine is best known for its beautiful Rhodochrosite specimens, but this is quite atypical for the locality. The piece is a "cast" of hollow forms of soft pink Rhodochrosite after Quartz. A really cool Rhodo for any collector of Colorado minerals, Rhodochrosites, or just unique casts.
