Rhodochrosite

Unknown Owner
A wonderful bright pink rhodochrosite on snow white quartz from the famed American Tunnel Mine in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado. This piece is from the collection of Dennis Novak. Crystals are in excellent condition. This piece has better color than many I see from this area.
