360  Rhodochrosite ps. Serandite with Polylithionite
Mt Saint-Hilaire, Rouville Co., Québec, Canada  
small-cabinet  7.6 x 6.0 x 3.8 cm

eBay Desc: Slender bladed crystals to 5 cm long of Serandite have been altered to pinkish orange Rhodocrosite. Also present are several pearly white crystals of Polylithionite, small colorless crystals of Natrolite and a few minor black crystals of Aegirine.

The Rhodocrosite fluoresces dark red and the Polylithionite a bright yellow under short wave ultraviolet light. Not commonly found at this locality which is the only one for such a pseudomorph.
