A striking, large rhodochrosite crystal cluster from Peru. A 5.5 cm band of gemmy, cherry-red rhodochrosite stretches across the 3-dimensional, mounded, sulfide matrix. The 2.4 cm, complex crystal is striking in its beauty, and is pristine, except for a cleave on one end. The rest of the rhodochrosite crystal field is cleaved.
