Detail view of the upper central part of the specimen SCH2b, showing numerous schallerite augen embedded in pink rhodonite. The small, franklinite-rich ore fragments around which the schallerite accreted are clearly visible in more than a dozen augen. The visible surface has been cut and lightly polished to better show the texture of the schallerite-rhodonite vein. The width of the horizontal field of view is about 14 mm.
