Description from the seller

Baryte crystals overgrown with pink rhodochrosite from the world famous (long closed) Oppu mine. Baryte is a rare species for this mine and almost never offered, especially a pseudomorph specimen as this!

A real classic which has become hard to find.. Specimens from here are always very scarce.
