More Information
Rhodochrosite (whose name means rose-colored) is commonly found in the form of stalactites and stalagmites in Argentina. The pink or reddish hue is caused by the element manganese.

This stone encourages a positive attitude, rejuvenates the soul, opens the heart chakra, enhances creativity, innovation, and dream states.
