RHODOCHROSITE, GALENA, SPHALERITE

A very curious specimen of rhodochrosite that shows us the usual concentric growths, of an intense pink colour with zoning, but in the core, it presents a nucleus formed by sphalerite and galena of a darker tone. A different specimen from this classic Argentinian locality.
