This is a great miniature size specimen. A classic association of a pinkish-red
Rhodochrosite crystal on Quartz with Sphalerite. The Rhodochrosite crystal
itself has fantastic luster and is incredibly sharp. The rhomb has a unique
appearance as the crystal's faces are "built
up" in the back like a set of stairs. Few pieces exist of
this size and quality from the Sunnyside mine.
Locality: Sunnyside mine, near Howardsville, Silverton District, San Juan
County, Colorado
Specimen Size: 4.3 x 3.3 x 1.6
Rhodochrosite Crystal: 2.5 cm
