Most of the tanzanite today is mined from Tanzania, which is the biggest supplier of the stone. The mines there are divided into 4 block from where the rocks are procured; namely Unites “A,” “B,” “C,” and “D.”

Like other tanzanite, it shows a play of colours when viewed from different angles. It also holds the pleochroistic quality like other varieties, meaning that it shows a different shade when viewed in different lights and angles.

Optical Features

What makes the stone special is the red-violet undertone along with a hypnotizing green base colour. Some rare varieties also portray a riveting mix of bluish-green tones as well. That said, it is majorly known for its unique colour play. The colour of the stone might resemble with tourmaline, but there are several other stark differences in the gems.

Specifications and family

The green tanzanite comes from the zoisite family of minerals, so it should be called green zoisite, in the technical manner of speaking. Coming under the fancy-colour tanzanite, the stones remain on 6.5 of the Mohs Scale of hardness. It means that the stones are hard but need care.
