3.6" Polished Rhodonite Section - Northern B.C.

This is a 3.6" wide, cut/polished section of rhodonite (manganese carbonate) mined in northern British Columbia, Canada. Each side and the base of this rhodonite specimen have been polished to a mirror-finish, making for a beautiful, decorative piece.

Rhodonite is a manganese silicate well known among collectors for its beautiful pink and red colors. The red variety can be so deep red that it rivals rubies in color. Rhodonite often has black manganese oxide veins running through its masses, giving it a distinct look with pink with black crisscrossing lines and flower-like formations throughout.
