Item Description
The cluster of mines contained within the Sunnyside area (of which there are several) are well-known for producing very attractive, and highly desirable, pink Rhodochrosites. Here we have lustrous, intergrown, curved Rhodochrosite rhombs up to 4 mm resting on a bed of snow-white, crystalline Quartz. The Rhodos, which are an unusually pure and intense pink, are abundant across the piece. Areas of Quartz are exposed between the clusters of thesewell-defined Rhodocrhosite crystals, thus creating a very attractive color contrast. This is an aesthetic and choice miniature for the district. Valued $1000
