On a large matrix is a rich sprinkling of super-lustrous and gemmy pink crystals of rhodochrosite - this is old Mexican material and HARD to obtain now - a good bit harder to get than Kalahari material in fact. In person, the crystals are much brighter and more sparkly than they appear in the photo - like little gems!
