Produktbeschreibung

Tanzanite Creation unveils the extraordinary tale of tanzanite, a rare gemstone found solely in Tanzania. This book explores the unique geological conditions that birthed this blue-violet gem, linking its creation to the East African Rift System. Readers will discover how this single location yields a stone formed roughly 585 million years ago, due to the metamorphism of vanadium-rich rocks. The book also explores the fascinating phenomenon of pleochroism, where tanzanite displays different colors when viewed from varying angles.

The book progresses logically, beginning with foundational geological principles and the specific setting of the Merelani Hills. It moves into mineralogy, explaining tanzanite's composition and optical properties. Finally, Tanzanite Creation examines the economic and social impacts of tanzanite mining, offering a comprehensive view of this rare gemstone's journey from the earth to the market. This offers a single-source compendium of information about tanzanite's creation and cultural impact that is currently spread out over many different sources.
