Description: | Rhodochrosite is a carbonate of manganese. It is pink to red in colour, and the massive, banded form is very popular for carving, because it is relatively soft. Crystals of this mineral are rare. Rhodochrosite is found in Romania, Argentina and South Africa. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East rocks and minerals natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
