Tanzanite is renowned for its intense blue and violet colors, but can also be golden, green, lilac and peacock (blue and green). The sole source of tanzanite is the Merelani Hills in northern Tanzania. Discovered in the 1960s, tanzanite is considered rarer than diamonds due to its single-source origin. The mines in Tanzania are exhaustible, adding to the gemstone's allure.

With a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, tanzanite is relatively soft compared to some other gemstones. As a result, it requires gentle care to prevent scratches or damage.

Tanzanite is believed to aide with spiritual awareness, insight, and communication. Some attribute it with calming energies and the ability to enhance psychic abilities.

This is a lovely thumbnail specimen of Pyrite from Nikitovka, Ukraine.  The pyrite found in this region typically occurs as metallic brassy masses, granular aggregates, and smaller crystal groupings. Unlike the sharp cubic pyrite crystals from Spain or Peru that collectors often recognize immediately, Nikitovka pyrite is more valued for its geological association with mercury minerals than for dramatic crystal form.
