Roughly 40% of the lot is that Peachy Pink color while the remainder is a White Gilgit material. All this material is high grade facet rough that can be used for resale as is and/or faceted!  We have mine direct links for this rough for those that are interested in purchasing this in bulk.

COOL FACTS:
  1. There is a new treatment out in Pakistan that is turning this material in a lovely Tangerine color that rivals the best Imperial Topaz from Brazil. The material is being irradiated and is stable with little or no signs of treatment. I have seen the treated material being sold as natural; however, please note that Pakistan DOES NOT produce natural orange Topaz and everything that you see come by you of this color from Pakistan should be suspect. From my understanding it is only the Gilgit material that is treating to this orange color and not the Katlang material.

  2. A very interesting fact that has come by me is that this material is being irradiated ON MATRIX. This will give the appearance of being a natural occurrence so please be aware!

  3. I have acquired some treated material that is currently being analyzed by GIA for and I will post results once they become available.
