Rhodochrosite

Unknown Owner
A fantastic example of rhodochrosite from an extremely uncommon locale, and in great condition. The salmon pink botryoidal coating bubbles over the matrix and glistens. There is a single small point of contact near the periphery which does not overly distract. A great specimen of rhodochrosite from a hard to get locality.
