Rhodochrosite at the Foote has many habits, and this piece has a cascade of somewhat amorphous crystals which barely resemble the rhombohedral form. The coverage gets quite dense. A professional trim would have this looking pretty awesome. I believe the association to be Parsettensite. Locality: Foote Lithium Company Mine, Kings Mountain, Cleveland County, North Carolina Composition: manganese carbonate and Mn5Si6O13(OH)8
