Rubellites and Tanzanites – New Additions to Our Rare Minerals

We have recently added rare rubellites and tanzanites to our selection, both among the most attractive minerals available today. These exceptional minerals stand out for their vivid colours, natural crystal structures and distinctive geological origins. Rubellites are valued for their rich red to pink shades, which retain their intensity under different types of lighting, while tanzanites are rare blue-violet minerals discovered only in 1967 that can change colour depending on the viewing angle. They occur in only one location in Tanzania, which makes them among the rarest minerals in the world.
