description: Gorgeous brilliant pink translucent terminated large bladed crystals of rhodonite to 1.5 cm in size forming an aesthetic cluster. Minor quartz in association. Superb miniature for the species - absolutely beautiful with wonderful color and aesthetics! Slight cleaving on one crystal termination, this not very evident in person and I only first noticed it in the finished photos. Size: 4.0 x 3.0 x 2.5 cm. From the last find at this now supposedly exhausted locality, around 2006/2007.
