- Pretty pink color, much more saturated than rose quartz
- These small beads are great for earrings as well as delicate bracelets
- The gem's name comes from the Greek for it's rosy color, but some of the best specimens from South America have been called Inca Rose.
- Rhodochrosite often forms around near hydrothermal activity, where superheated water circulates through veins in the rocks. Examples include the Sweet Home Mine in Colorado, Capillitas in Argentina and the N'Chwanig mines in South Africa.
- Robert Simmons recommends placing Rhodochrosite over the heart during meditation or sleep to cleanse, soothe and heal the energy field around the heart for emotional healing.
