Another HUGE floater specimen of Chinese rhodo! The form, like the above, is just extremely elongated and unusual for a rhodo. This one is a compound cluster, a floater that is complete and terminated all around, composed of several intergrown crystals. This is a most impressive piece, in person. Again, we have a strange association with what appears to be pegmatitic cleavelandite.
