Rhodochrosite specimens exhibit shades of pink to pale brown, but in its purest and rarest form it is usually rose red. It is both soft and brittle making it relatively difficult to cut; therefore, faceted rhodochrosite is not common.
Take extra care of this stone as it can easily lose its polish. Simply clean it in soap and cool water.
Rhodochrosite occurs in Argentina, Mexico, Namibia, South Africa, Spain, Romania and the U.S.A. Stalactitic specimens of white and pink banded rhodochrosite come from an old silver mine in Argentina.

This gemstone is generally pink to lavender with black veins or dendrites. It is more durable than rhodochrosite and safe for most cleaning methods.

Rhodonite is sometimes called the “singer’s stone” because it is supposed to improve sound sensitivity. Some find it helps with the nervous system and self esteem.
Rubies, along with sapphires, emeralds and diamonds, are considered one of the four precious gemstones. Ruby is a hard, durable and rare stone and its value is usually determined by color, clarity and size or carat.
Ruby is the red stone of the corundum mineral family which can be found in Afghanistan, Cambodia, India, Kampuchea, Kenya, Madagascar, Myanmar, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Thailand, the U.S.A. and Zimbabwe.
Rubies symbolize love and devotion and some believe they have the power to stimulate sexual desire and energy. It is suggested that this stone may be used to treat physical wounds, blood disorders and emotional and spiritual wounds.
Ruby Zoisite:This metamorphic gem is a natural combination of ruby and zoisite crystals with the zoisite providing an earthy green and black color complimented by the red of the ruby. Since ruby zoisite is fairly soft, it scratches easily.
It is found in Australia, Norway, Tanzania and the U.S.A.
Ruby Zoisite is purported to increase awareness of the super-ego.
