Rhodochrosite with Fluorite, Tetrahedrite, and Quartz
Gorgeous rhombs of Rhodochrosite with lavender Fluorite, Tetrahedrite, and Quartz!
This specimen has a little of everything for the Rhodochrosite collector. The gemmy, red rhombs are beautifully positioned atop the host matrix and perfectly accenting by modified cubes of lavender
Fluorite. Most of the Fluorite crystals are partially coated with a white mineral adding additional color contrast. Small needles of Quartz surround the Rhodochrosite rhombs, along with Tetrahedrite crystals.
