Mineral: _Rhodochrosite, Quartz and Sphalerite
Locality: Austria Duvas Mine, Morococha District, Yauli Province, Junín Department, Peru
Dimensions: Analysis

Description: Some similar specimens, with paler tones and from the same mine and period, were identified as manganese-bearing calcites, so, both species coexist at the same mine. The dealer, someone familiar for us, has sent me a copy of the analysis of this type of specimen due to its genetic complexity.
