A rare example rhodochrosite that has replaced a fossilized mussel!!! This specimen consists of a sharply defined,
complete fossilized mussel that has been completely replaced by rhodochrosite!!! The rhodochrosite has a somewhat
pinkish-tan flesh coloration and it is also quite lustrous and highly translucent!!! The specimen is very sharply defined
with all the major fossil features prominently pronounced!!! This is an unusually fine
rhodochrosite fossil replacement indeed!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
