Rhodochrosite from Argentina - Stalagmites and stalactites are formed from precipitating water dripping from the manganese rich rock inside the ancient Inca silver mine tunnels. These beautifully banded stalagmites are often sliced and polished into slabs for collectors, and are cut and polished by jewelers.

Pinolith - A very rare semi-precious stone. It comes from only one place in the world, a magnesite deposit located in Lower Tauern, a mountain range of the Central Eastern Alps in Austria, where pinolith was discovered in 1873.
