Question #1:
Rhodochrosite, Gem, Ruby?
There are bagged gem stones I have come across, and one in particular is, what appears to be a cut ruby. Its oval and the size of a hot wheels care wheel. And on the bad it says; "Ruby City, 280 E. Main Franklin, N.C." And below, hand written, says " Rhodo. 2 C."It looks like a ruby, but when I searched up "Rodo" and Gems, Rhodochrosite came up. And by what ive learned, Rhodochrosite is comes from caves?
Question #2:
Any Rockhounds on here?
If so...j/w where y'all are from? and what do you guys specialize or look for the most.For me, I'm in MT and smoky quartz crystals is my fav. but I have a lot of other minerals including rhodochrosite ( oh ya baby.) and also proud to be one of very few (less than 5) who know where both of the ONLY 2 spots in the state for MT Blue Agate. :)

Question #4:
Does any one know of a kids cyrstal, gem and stone book?
My son keeps stealing my copy of Cunningham's Crystal, Gem and Metal Magic. He is only five and just learning to read. He likes looking at the pictures and trying to sound out some of the names of the crystals (him trying to read Rhodochrosite was pretty funny). I was wondering if any one knows of a good books of stones and crystals for kids with some easier ones to read and nice photos. I know I had one when I was like 13, but I have no idea what happened to it after I moved out of my mom's place and I think it might be to advance for my five year old.Question #5:

Always good to get a variety of answers.

Rhodochrosite is my favorite stone. Price doesn't matter to me (their shipping costs are different) I'll only wear it when I have a pink shirt/dress on. I just can't decide what looks better overall. Any reasons why I should choose which one?
I'm 20 years old if that helps for what's age appropriate.
I'm only deciding on one, so as much as all of you like both. Which one would you choose if you had this choice. Thanks!
Question #9:
I have a near perfect cube of blood-red rhodochrosite on my desk. How can it not be Intelligently Designed?
Surely such beautiful crystals couldn’t just happen by accident! Who so carefully carved them? Why is their color so pure?Could it be, dare I say it, thermodynamics?

Celestite and Rose Quartz would have to be my all time favorite. But I really do want a rhodochrosite cyrstal or a moldolvite stone.I am into crystal healing.
Question #12:
Do these minerals really enhance collagen production in mineral makeup? (see details)?
On this site for a mineral makeup there is a claim that some of its minerals enhance collagen production, is this true, i'm just curious..Mineral Extracts, including Malachite, Rhodochrosite and Smithsonite help protect skin from environmental stress and enhance collagen production.
