Rhodochrosite
Rhodochrosite is a manganese mineral known for its pink to deep red colour and often distinctive band structure. The mineral has a glassy luster and occurs in both translucent crystals and solid, striated formations. Rhodochrosite is valued as an ornamental stone and collectible because of its vibrant colour and unique patterns.
Major deposits of rhodochrosite include Argentina, South Africa, Peru, Romania and the United States (especially Colorado). The mineral forms in hydrothermal veins, often together with other manganese-containing minerals. Its chemical formula is MnCO₃ and its hardness is 3.5 to 4.5 on the Mohs scale.
