Large, gemmy red Rhodochrosite crystals on matrix from old finds at the Uchcchacua Mine. There are both contacted and undamaged, well terminated crystals and the association of the greenish grey stalactitic mineralization (manganese oxides?) is aesthetic. Old material I recently obtained from a Peruvian miner.
