The odd piece may have small specular Smokey Quartz like inclusions else small traces of black specular inclusions. Deposits from Zimbabwe can be anywhere along the Malagasy spectrum as well but one features which seems to be more common is the "Kobi" beef like appearance of the Amazonite from Zimbabwe, in that, the classic turquoise colour is offset again a marbling of white to creamed coloured material.
