Description

Cute matrix specimen with a vug lined with bright quartz crystals, hosting rhodochrosite crystals. There are a few rhodochrosites, but two that feature prominently – the tallest is 1 cm. The rhodochosites are in excellent condition – the larger one has some contact crystallization faces around the back. This is a nice miniature with a crisp, clean look.
