DESCRIPTION:

Ultra Rare SPECTACULAR Lot of almost Neon Blue Green to Green colored Zoisite Cabbing & Crystal Rough from Skardu, Pakistan. This is extremely difficult material to get a hold of. The lot overall is running roughly 95%+ Cabbing Grade and is being sold strictly as Cabbing/Carving and Specimen Grade! Quite a few stones in here look to be fully terminated crystals and are a steal for the price! If you take a look online you will see what Zoisite Crystals from Pakistan this size run! I think the price on this makes the lot a MUST have as we don't anticipate on getting much more of this material in the near future!

We have NEVER seen this material in the local market as of thus far and it was really a stroke of luck that we came across this lot at all.

Please note that we haven't tested this material and can't say for 100% certainty that it is Zoisite but we are 99.9% sure it is. Everyone in the local market in Pakistan has identified this as Zoisite and we have purchased similar material in the past of a different color. There really isn't too much of this material coming out and it is a very hot collectors item. Overall this lot is a steal at the price and we are confident it will please the most discriminating collector for price. We don't know if we will get a hold of more of this in the future so don't miss out!!

COOL FACTS:
  1. This is a relatively new find of Zoisite coming from Pakistan. Facet Grade Zoisite is only known to come for one or two other countries on any significant scale. We haven't seen Pakistani Zoisite in the marketplace with rare exception and never let it slip by us when we can purchase it. We unfortunately don't have any exposure to the effects of heat treatment on the stone so can't advise one way or the other.
