Item Description

Excellent, sharp and gemmy, pretty rose-red rhodochrosite scalenohedrons and quartz points richly cover the massive manganite matrix on this showy and excellent combination specimen from the famous Nchwaning I Mine. Quartz is RARE from any of the Nchwaning mines, so this is a real keeper.
