Rhodochrosite Stalactite Section
Argentina
This large section of a stalactite would have been mined in the early 1990s. It displays a central core which is a rich ruby red grapefruit color and possesses a double bull's eye to the center, "bacon fat" banding to the borders and complete rind to the exterior. Such fine specimens are now difficult to obtain in today's market. A companion to the previous lot and of slightly smaller size. Weighing approximately 278 grams and measuring 4 x 3 1/2 x 2 in
