These are both classic cabinet specimens. Spherocobaltite has grape like spherical aggregates of cobalt rich calcium formed into this crystal structure, which differs from Salrose, which is a Dolomite formation, whereas this is a Calcite. One of these has black Heterogenite on the crystals and the other one has it in the matrix. Both of these also have a nice pink cobalt coloured Dolomite matrix surrounding the shiny pink crystals. These come from the Mashamba West Mine and we very rarely see these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRODUCT DESCRIPTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpherocobaltite is a rare cobalt carbonate mineral, the cobalt-rich member of the Calcite group.
