Very uncommon and attractive example of Rhodochrosite. Displays nicely intergrown crystals with pink-brown color and rhombohedral habit. They are complete and have perfect, sharp shape with strong luster. Some Aegirine crystals with black color penetrate in the main Rhodochrosite.  For references see The Mineralogical Record, 21, 332-333. In very good condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.

Unusual Rhodochrosite!
