Rhodochrosite with Acanthite, Silver, Fluorite etc. (Ref: 8.1-417)
Wutong Mine, Liubao, Cangwu Co. Wuzoh Pref., Guangxi Province, China
61mm x 54mm
minID: D9J-VRR
A large (3.7 CM) rhomb of bright red Rhodo sits neatly on a contrasting matrix made up of Acanthite crystals, Native Silver in wires, Sphalerite, Pyrite and Fluorite. If that list is not long enough to clog a label, there are other dark sulfides one of which may be Stephanite but have not been confirmed. A super example of the Rhodo from this find and the association with Silver minerals is very special. Really attractive overall and one of the best I have seen for the relation to Silver.
