I missed the first round vote for #charoite, but I'll be voting for the purple in future rounds for sure!


#MinCup24 R1 M14: #Cacoxenite versus #Charoite

"Bad guest" Cacoxenite returns as a fragile fluffball of translucent orange.
Newbie Charoite is such a striking purple, people once thought it was dyed.

They're both beautiful with unusual shapes, but only one moves on to Round 2!

Loot from today's mineral fair. A very pretty agate pendant, a charoite pendant, and some carnelian pebbles because the archeologist in me loves carnelian. 🥰

A bracelet made of irregular pebble shaped carnelian beads (about the size of peas), next to a teardrop shaped polished pebble that has white and black patterns with some vivid light purple (charoite) mixed in. The agate pendant is round, marbled black and white, with some branching dendrite features.
