Cobaltoan Dolomite is a variety of Dolomite enriched with cobalt. Many specimens labeled as Cobaltoan Calcite are, in fact, Dolomite. Often referred to by the trade name Salrose due to its distinctive pink hues, this mineral can occasionally include calcite, though this particular example is pure Dolomite. What distinguishes this piece are the striking Malachite spheres that accompany it, adding a unique and elegant touch.
