Item Description
A RARE and showy combination from this famous mine. Rich pastel-pink, sharp, sugary rhodochrosite rhombs, to 7 mm, cover the sulfide matrix and are nicely accented with rare clusters of glassy, lustrous fluorite cubes. The mostly gray transparent to translucent cubes, highlighted by the striking 8 mm cube on the side, are mostly gray, but some have areas of light purple, adding contrast. Purple fluorescence. Ex W.S. Logan Rhodochrosite Collection # X105-8. Rare combination quality and rarely on the market.
