Rhodonite, 27 Level, North Mine, Broken Hill, NSW
SKU: 469
Size 9cm x 5cm
A good sized cabinet speciman of gemmy red rhodonite crystals in silver galena matrix. The large crystal on the right is 30mm high by 15mm wide. The large crystal on the left, could possibly be exposed more by carefully removing the galena matrix , exposing a longer crystal. These were collected underground in the north mine in the 1980's, and this occurance produced the some of the best rhodonite crystals to come out of Broken Hill. The area is now mined out, therefore no more specimens will come from this area. A true classic from Broken Hill.
