Japanese rhodochrosites are world classics that are extremely hard to find now. Sometimes, you get this beautiful pyrite association - in this case, a rich covering of sparkly golden pyrite contrasting with the underlying blanket of salmon-pink rhodo. This old-timer came out of the collection of H.J. Siber.
