Rose-red, lustrous, translucent rhodochrosite rhombs with frosted faces and starkly contrasting pretty sky-blue, gemmy, glassy, densely stepped-growth fluorite cubes are richly sprinkled on this classic, colorful large combination plate from the famous Sweet Home Mine. The rhodo rhombs reach 1.3 cm on edge and the fluorite cubes are also up to 1.3 cm. Mixed sulfides are also visible on the quartz and fluorite matrix plate. In great shape overall. All of the fluorites appear to be pristine and there is only a couple of bruised rhombs. An excellent and rich large Sweet Home combination with gemmy blue fluorite cubes. Purple fluorescence. Valued at $1500-1750 for combination quality.
