Brown Rhodochrosite with Flower Mica - Shigar Valley, Skardu, Pakistan
Weight: 9 Grams
A very aesthetic and unusual combination specimen from the famous Shigar Valley. This piece features a rich brown Rhodochrosite crystal beautifully combined with a natural flower-shaped Mica cluster.
The Rhodochrosite shows a deep caramel-brown color with excellent luster and sharp formation, very rare for this locality. It is perfectly accented by the silvery-white flower Mica growing alongside it, creating a superb contrast and balance.
A highly collectible miniature specimen for any fine mineral collector. The combination of Rhodochrosite + Mica in this habit is seldom seen from Skardu.
