Description/Interesting Notes: An exceptional example of this very rare and highly sought botryoidal rhodochrosite from Nevada!!! This specimen hosts an impressive display of deep red, botryoidal rhodochrosite crystals set on a contrasting matrix... of black romanechite and accented by a few tiny, lustrous baryte crystals scattered about!!! The rhodochrosite crystals are highly lustrous, intensely colored, and exhibit an attractive, almost glowing, translucence!!! These Lone Tree Mine rhodochrosite specimens are quite scarce in any size or quality, however large and impressive specimens such as this are next to impossible to obtain!!! This specimen is from the noted collection of Martin Jensen and retains its original, detailed label as well!!! Very showy and impressive in person!!! 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!!!
