Rhodochrosite | Tumbled TOURMALINEGREEN Steven Foster and James ARhodochrosite is a manganese carbonate with a hardness of 3. 5 to 4. Its crystal system is hexagonal (trigonal). Most often, Rhodochrosite occurs in massive, granular, botryoidal, nodular or stalactitic habits, but it occasionally forms prismatic, tabular or rhombohedral crystals. The name Rhodochrosite refers to the Greek word for its rose red color. Most Rhodochrosite is in the pink to red color range, but it can also be yellowish, orange or brown.
