Tanzanite is the mineral
Zoisite. Discovered in 1969 ago in the foothills of Mount
Kilimanjaro in East Africa (in Tanzania), this exciting violet gem has become
VERY popular. Tanzanite is a tri-chroic gem, meaning that it has 3
colors. When mined it is violet, blue, and brown, depending on the viewing
axis (direction of viewing). The rough is heated which changes the brown
to blue, so you will see gems with either a predominantly blue or violet color
depending on the direction of cutting.
Tanzanite has just been
designated by the AGTA (American Gem Trade Association) as an alternate birth
stone for December!
You may hear that Tanzanite is mined
out and supply is nearly gone. Don't believe it! It's simply a
sales pitch. Yes, some of the mines were closed a couple of years ago due to
flooding. They have been re-opened. Supply isn't overwhelming, but I
can still get all you want. Tanzanite is a pricey gem, but I get you
the best prices available. I also shop carefully to get gems with intense
color even in the smaller sizes.

IOLITE
is the mineral
Cordierite. Found mostly in India and Sri Lanka it was known for centuries
as Water Sapphire because it was often found in a lighter color of sapphire
blue. Since the discovery and subsequent immense popularity of Tanzanite,
Iolite is now often called "poor man's Tanzanite".
