is a rare gem which has been celebrated as one of the most exciting finds of the 20th century. [SNIP] discovered the gem------. He was directed to a cache of stones by [SNIP] tribesmen, so original credit of discovery should really go the [SNIP]. [SNIP] at first believed that he would be uncovering a new and rich supply of sapphire, but was surprised instead to find this beautiful and rare gem.
At first, tanzanite does not seem all that impressive, resembling a brown slab of glass. When heated, however, it becomes a brilliant blue, sometimes with shades of purple. The best quality stones have been likened to the color of Elizabeth Taylors eyes.
