DESCRIPTION:

Awesome Lot of Neon Electric Purple to Bluish Purple Tanzanite Top Faceting Rough from Tanzania. Overall this lot is running roughly 60%+ Top Facet Grade with most stones capable of producing an Eye-Clean to very slightly included finished gems with a little hard work. Roughly 1/2 the stones in the parcel look like they should produce Eye-Clean or better with relative ease; however, these are the smaller stones in the parcel. The remaining 50% of the lot does have some inclusions and most of these stones will probably produce very slightly to slightly included finished stones. You can cob or saw the stones to produce cleaner finished gems; however, in some cases the yield returns will not be worthwhile if you went for the cleanest stone possible.

There are a few stones in here that are poorly shaped for yield; however, most stones are well shaped for average or above average yield depending on clarity preferences. The lot as a whole is pretty uniform in color with 1 stone being Root Beer Brown in color. We don't know if the lot was heated though we are pretty sure that all stones with the exception of the brown were. Local prices for top grade Tanzanite in Tanzania are running $400-600+ per gram for anything 1 gram and over and that far exceeds the local prices IN the US on Cut stones making it uneconomical to purchase at this time for us. Due to the great price we got this at we are blowing this out at a mere $10.00 Per CARAT!!! At that price it would probably be impossible to purchase in Tanzania! The lot is priced to sell so don't miss out.
