sapphirine x

The sapphirines discovered in November 2021 can probably be described as a small sensation. We can't find out the exact place where it was found, only the approximate area. There are some crystals that are really well formed, but most of them are only partially well formed. The crystal surfaces are not always visible due to the adhering rock residue. In the meantime we also received well cleaned crystals and also beautiful faceted stones that shine wonderfully blue.

The small video shows the owner of the site and the barren environment in southern Madagascar. He explains how he found the stones and where he looked. See also our blog about this site
