More About Rhodonite
Rhodonite, from the Greek word “rhodon”, meaning “rose” is a pink colored manganese silicate. It is often confused with rhodochrosite, which is a rose colored manganese carbonate. Not surprisingly, the two gemstones are often found in close proximity. Rhodonite is often marbled with a black matrix of manganese oxide.
