Rhodochrosite (Polished)
Capillitas Mine
Andalgala Department, Capillitas Province, Argentina
20.32 cm x 11.0 cm x 4.3 cm, 1.51 kg / 3+ pounds
This is one of the most interesting and impressive Rhodochrosite specimens from Argentina I have had the privilege of obtaining.
It is 80% polished, the very top and bottom edges have been left natural.
The internal all natural vug filled with Rhodo stalactites, is pretty amazing, they look like Rhodo worms!
When the vug is back lit, the red color lights it up.
Even more impressive in person!
