Storia

Il valore di una pietra della Tanzanite è profondamente legato alla storia del suo popolo. Trovata ai piedi del monte Kilimanjaro, si dice che la pietra sia stata scoperta per la prima volta nel 1967 da Jumanne Ngoma, un mandriano locale che individuò un cristallo blu brillante e condivise la sua scoperta con il cercatore di gemme Manual D'Souza.

Originariamente e scientificamente chiamata Zoisite blu a causa della sua composizione, è solo dopo alcuni anni che la pietra è stata rinominata Tanzanite dal suo paese d'origine. La gemma Tanzanite ha da allora occupato un posto significativo nel patrimonio e nella crescita del popolo della Tanzania.

Rarità

Among the most attractive features of Tanzanite is its rarity. The tectonic activity, intense heat, and mineral composition which created the blue zoisite are said to be so improbable they are considered a geological phenomenon. Geologists have estimated the possibility of finding another Tanzanite deposit in the world as impossible, making the Kilimanjaro region its only source with mines which are expected to run out in the next 10 to 20 years.

This factor makes Tanzanite one of the rarest and most mesmerizing gems in the world. Even said to be a thousand times rarer than a diamond, the stone has incredibile valore da collezione dalle leggi della domanda e dell'offerta.
