About this specimen

Wuzhou, Guangxi, rhodochrosite in white quartz at 33 g; a miniature with one point of colour.

The pink in rhodochrosite comes from manganese; crystals like these are far rarer than the banded stalactitic material used in jewellery.

Quartz is the most collected mineral on earth for good reason: sharp hexagonal prisms, bright terminations and endless variation between localities.

Guangxi is the source of China's best pyromorphite and of the rhodochrosite and calcite from the Wuzhou lead-zinc mines.

By size it is miniature, 4 × 2.8 × 2.7 cm (1.57 × 1.10 × 1.06 in) and 33 g (1.2 oz). Condition is otherwise as photographed.

Carbonate: never clean with acid or vinegar.

Each specimen is individually photographed and catalogued before it is listed.
