Rhodochrosite with Fluorite

Unknown Owner
Attractive lustrous red gemmy rhombohedral crystals of rhodochrosite measuring to 1.0 cm in size across the top of this matrix with tetrahedrite and minor fluorite. Some cleaving is present as seen, this mainly around the edges of the piece. Still very nice.
