Rhodochrosite

John Reed Mine, Alicante, Lake County, Colorado, USA

2.6cm x 2.5cm x 1.75cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare, old time example of rhodochrosite from this seldom referenced Colorado locale!!! This specimen consists of a gemmy, deep reddish pink rhomb of rhodochrosite that exhibits complexly etched features - a characteristic feature of this old time locale!!! These historic specimens are quite scarce and seldom seen on the market!!! This specimen exhibits brilliant, glassy luster with highly complex details with a combination of etched and slightly rounded features!!! The color is absolutely gorgeous and the main display face displays stunningly in person - this specimen is WAY better than the pics show!!! These historic John Reed Mine specimens are quite difficult to obtain, especially in this size and quality!!! Rare material!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
