A fossil bivalve shell that has been completely replaced by pink Rhodochrosite. The shell is wonderfully preserved with both sides present. There is a thin layer of the original white shell present, but it is all Rhodochrosite underneath both sides. One side has been cut to reveal the bubbly pink Rhodochrosite inside.
