A beautiful locality rhodo specimen! This one consists of rhodo draped by a secondary coating of rhodo admixed with sparkling quartz for a really striking pink-on-red effect. It is also an unusual habit for the mine, usually seen in smaller specimens. This is a large one, in my experience, and thus highly desirable. 8.4 x 7.2 x 2.0 cm
