Rhodochrosite -rhombic and etched forms (Ref: AX-22-103)
Wutong Mine, Liubao, Cangwu Co. Wuzoh Pref., Guangxi Province, China
30mm x 23mm x 23mm
minID: UWQ-1UQ
Deep red color, translucent to transparent and with fine form, a choice toenail sized Rhodo. From the Wuton (Wudong) mine that is no longer producing, but at one time this discovery made nice Rhodos much more affordable for many collectors. This piece has a pair of modified rhombs joined in a V shape. One is sharp and glassy with some stepped etching, the other is more heavily modified, etched and recrystallized. This is the style that was often compared to Rhodos from Sweet Home. There is a lot of similarity but the price is very much lower from this locale!From: Well-Arranged Molecules
