Rhodochrosite is a manganese carbonate mineral characterized by the chemical formula MnCO3. While it is rarely found in its pure form, it usually exhibits a rose-red hue, though it can also appear in various shades of pink to pale brown. The mineral leaves a white streak and has a Mohs hardness ranging from 3.5 to 4.5. Its specific gravity falls between 3.45 and 3.6. Rhodochrosite crystallizes in the trigonal system and features a structure and cleavage consistent with the carbonate rhombohedral system.

Pyrite, commonly referred to as fool's gold, is an iron sulfide with the chemical formula FeS2, also known as iron (II) disulfide. It is the most prevalent sulfide mineral found in nature.
