These specimens are often found in Argentina and are highly sought after by collectors due to their unique and attractive appearance.  These specimens are considered to be high quality due to the clear and well-formed crystals of rhodochrosite, and their unique shape as stalactites. The color of Rhodochrosite Stalactites from Argentina ranges from pale to deep pink, or red, and can be highly banded or with different shades.
