Post Tucson Cutting

04/02/10 21:41 Filed in: Latest Cut Gems
First new stones for February

A couple new stones to start out the month, the first one is one of the new Afghan tourmalines I found in Tucson. This stone is just over 3 cts, and a very pretty minty green color.

Next up is a Tsavorite Garnet from Tanzania. This one is from my summer trip to Africa.

This last one is a Spinel from Tajikistan

TUCSON 2010

03/02/10 21:52 Filed in: New Rough gems
I'm back from Tucson, and ready to get cutting again. The trip was short just a few days, but long enough to fit in what I needed. The shows with the rough start early, before the major GJX and AGTA. The crowds this year were less than the last few years, so it was quicker moving around, and less trouble finding a parking spot.

I'll post some pictures of the new rough I purchased in a few days. The highlights are certainly some very nice aquamarine from Mozambique. This was the first time in years I have seen some better blue stones. I bought quite a few pieces and a few larger stones with excellent color. I was able to find some very nice tourmaline from Afghanistan, and some blue sapphire from the Missouri River in Montana that was mined over 20 years ago. I'll have a complete listing up soon.
