PXA2 Rhodochrosite

Uchucchacua Mine, Oyon Prov., Lima Dept., Peru

11.0x 6.6x 8.1 cm

$6000

A stunning large cabinet rhodochrosite, with deep red, PRISMATIC crystals to about 1.7 cm.  This specimen is from a pocket encountered about 4 years ago, and is among the best from the find.

The main crystals are intact and undamaged, only some around the edge show any cleaving.  This hardly detracts from the specimen.
