DESCRIPTION:

Super lot of LARGE Pastel Pink to Pinkish Purple Nigerian Kunzite Faceting & Cabbing Rough. 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. Please note that these are from a fairly new find of Kunzite in Nigeria and we don't really know anyone else who is carrying the material in the US. Some of the rough in this lot has peculiar silver needles that are visible from certain angles and not others unlike anything we have seen in Afghan Kunzite; however, the lot overall is running roughly 65% High Facet Grade with the remainder being a mix of Facet & Cab rough. We have seen similar material marketed as "Rutilated" Kunzite or "Rutile" Kunzite; however, we'll leave that part to you. Overall this is a bargain NOT to be missed for if this were Afghan Kunzite we wouldn't be able to buy it for this price! We have a limited amount of this material that we will be making available on this E-Newsletter so get one of these lots before it is all gone! At $1.00 Per Gram you will regret not getting this!

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT KUNZITE IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART! If you have not dealt with Kunzite before I would not recommend picking this up. Don't miss your opportunity to pick this up as we will not stock much of this material because of current market prices.

COOL FACTS:
  1. This is from a New Find of Kunzite from Nigeria, Africa. We have been hearing rumors that extremely large stones are being mined; however, we haven't seen any of that first hand. The material we have received is similar to this and some of it actually looks like it is partially alluvial.
