Rhodochrosite with Quartz, New South Wales, Australia, Large Cabinet-Sized Specimen South America Deep green cubic half crystals

Deep green cubic half crystals of Fluorite with a spattering of grainy Quartz crystals on some faces

Large rhombohedral crystals form penetration twins atop a bed of a thick plate of Dolomite with smaller

Hexagonal shapes rise straight up with the larger crystals sitting across the edges

The well-defined crystals have a diamond-like formation at the top and work as prisms refracting light into a beautiful spectrum

The lighter darker browns meet in a crosshatch pattern on the dodecahedral surface of this miniature-sized specimen
