This specimen has 3 dominant rhodochrosite rhombohedrons perched on a crown of needle quartz matrix. The largest rhodochrosite crystal is 0.9cm across. The crystals are sharp and in good condition. A nice miniature plate displaying a combination or quartz and rhodochrosite. A very representative specimen from this famous mine. Ex. Ronald Harvey
