Awesome ULTRA RARE Lot of Medium Dark to Santa Maria Blue CATS EYE Aquamarine Rough from Nigeria. This lot represents some of the fruits of our labor on our recent Trip to Nigeria and we are hopeful of establishing a steady supply of this in the future. The material is some of the largest and best colored Aqua we have ever been able to offer. The material unfortunately is NOT clean as much of the material, if not all, clearly has Chatoyancy fibers visible. This is some of the deepest Blue Cat's Eye Aqua Rough we have ever seen available. We are confident that with proper orientation you will be able to produce some lovely RARE Cat's Eye cabs from this lot. We had 1 stone cut as a sample to ensure that the material did Cat's Eye and we were very pleased with the results considering the great price we have on this! The material is very transparent and you may just want to facet the material as the Chatoyancy is really visible only on certain sides and with proper orientation you may be able to hide its effects altogether from the face up view though we wouldn't recommend such for this lot in particular!

We are confident that you will get some killer stones out of this lot with a little hard work. This Lot is largely composed of nice and chunky crystals and/or crystal sections capable of giving above average weight returns. Please note this is premium sized material with the average stone weighing in around 22.5 CARATS! This is a great deal as we don't really know anyone who is selling this material at this price IN Nigeria at the moment! This is a give away at our price and a deal not to be missed!

1. Nigeria has been producing some of the darkest Aquamarine available in the market and has begun to eclipse some of the traditional deposits in Latin America and Eastern Europe in volume. Many of the Sea-Foam stones from Nigeria also treat to a beautiful icy to medium dark blue in color (depending on the depth of the Sea-Foam color).
