| DESCRIPTION: |
Spectacular Lot of Electric Hot Pink to Steel Blue Spinel Faceting Rough from Morogoro, Tanzania. Overall, the lot looks to be running roughly 80%+ High to Top Facet Grade. This material is from a primary deposit and you may see a crystal or two in here as a result. The bulk of these are nice and chunky crystal sections shaped for high yield and we are confident you will take out some spectacular finished stones from here! Please note that there are a few orange stones in the parcel that are probably Clinohumite as that is produced in the Spinel mining area in Mahenge; however, we have not tested the material and there are no guarantees on it. This is ideal material for overseas cutting!! Spinel production in Tanzania is DOWN! The Tunduru mines are practically dry at the surface and any material unearthed from mechanized mining is kept by the mine owners who are generally foreigners. Morogoro material is virtually non-existent in sizes over a gram in attractive colors commanding prices that are unrealistic. For the price on this parcel you really can't lose! |
