1503540

Hotazel, Kalahari manganese fields, Northern Cape Province, South Africa
description:
Gorgeous sparkling pinkish red scalenohedral mostly transparent crystals of rhodochrosite averaging 0.3 cm in size over the front of a 7.5 x 5.0 x 2.5 cm crystalline manganite matrix. Very minimal micro-chipping present, this confined to the edges, I think this in very good condition. Great color contrast making for an attractive piece. Shipping weight: 0.34 pounds.
