DESCRIPTION:
Lovely Lot of Nigerian Amethyst Faceting & Cabbing Rough running from a Pastel Purple to a Siberian Purple. This is very nice material with roughly 70%+ being High Facet Grade Rough. Most stones are chunky crystal sections and many show partial terminations. These are NOT small pieces and the average weight per stone is 20 or so Carats! Please note that some stones exhibit some very unusual inclusions that look like needles all running parallel to one another. We have seen these inclusions in the past and they are generally characteristic of Nigerian Amethyst from one particular area. These inclusions aren't visible from every angle and you really have to orient the rough right to be able to see them. We are confident you will take out some spectacular stones from this parcel!
Please note that due to the size of this rough and the volume of rough we receive, we have not cobbed and cleaned this material to get the stones eye-clean. A significant percentage of the stones in this lot do have some inclusions and veils; however, this is very gemmy material and many inclusions if not most can be worked around and/or should cut out. There are some stones where you will have to divide the rough up into several stones to get eye-clean or better finished gems. This is a GREAT value as we have discounted it to move quick! We don't know too many people IN Nigeria who are selling this caliber material for less than $1.00 Per Gram so don't miss this opportunity!!
