Inesites are rare from anywhere -- best known from the Kalahari Manganese Fields, but this one is from a recent find at the Daye Mine in CHINA! The Daye Mine just keeps turning up new surprises, due to its incredibly rich spectrum of ores that form a great variety of secondary minerals. There is modest damage here, but still, the clusters have a desirable deep reddish-pink color, and are richly spread across the surface.
