Rhodochrosite
Uchucchacua Mine, Oyon Province
Lima Department, Peru
6.7 x 4.9 x 2.5 CM (cabinet)
price: $440
Pre Tucson
A nice bright rosy-pink to red Rhodo specimen of stacked and complex clusters of rhomb form crystals. The matrix is the classic dark Sulfide ore and the contrast is excellent. Overall in excellent condition no damage is seen by naked eye (mine) and at 10x magnification there is very little to find. A few crystals reach 6-7 MM in size and most have a stepped or twisted habit on close exam. A colorful and still affordable Rhodo.
