The rarity of Rhodochrosite comes from the fact that it is rarely found as well-formed crystals, so mineral specimens are far and few between. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften mistaken for Rhodonite, one can be forgiven for this; typically sharing the same hues of red, the main difference is the colour patterns. Rhodonite has dark-coloured, uneven bands or zones, but Rhodochrosite has light-coloured, mostly parallel colour banding. Chatoyancy is another factor; where Rhodonite may exhibit chatoyancy, Rhodochrosite will NEVER exhibit this visual phenomena. The last factor, Rhodonite is usually associated with manganese oxide, a black mineral; this is missing with Rhodochrosite. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrystamour’s collection features pink Rhodochrosite clusters with an array of associations. Bladed in habit, the chaotic growth complements the pearly pink lustre, accentuated by a mix of Pyrite, Fluorite, Barite, Fluorapatite, and clear Quartz. The signature pink hue under backlight cannot be mistaken. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing Argentina’s national gemstone, Rhodochrosite is a stone of change, bringing out the adventurous spirit in us.
