Physical Properties

Overview:  Tanzanite was first discovered in Tanzania in 1967 and was named after its country of its origin, Tanzania.Tanzanite is basically the Blue variety of "Zoisite", and mined in Tanzania just below the majestic Mount Kilamanjaro.Tanzanite is a trichroic gemstone, meaning that it exhibits one of three colors depending on which way the crystal is viewed. Tanzanite will always shift color when the viewing environment is switched from daylight or daylight-fluorescent to incandescent lighting. Tanzanite is a beautiful gem, but with moderate hardness and perfect cleavage, it is less than ideal for wearing in jewelry.
