This small cluster is comprised of a few crystals, to 1.5 cm across, of frosted, rich pink, translucent crystals of rhodochrosite. From the collection of James E. Moresby White. Only the very slightest bruising can be seen on the crystals. This is a superb locality specimen for the size! Found by Mr. White during the summer of 1953 according to his label. Ex.
