Mineral Type - Spinel
This is a fairly new material from Madagascar which is almost brecciated Quartz / Granite-like matrix which ranges in colour from white to smokey.
A percentage of the material with a Quartz matrix has variable gemmy zones with a wide range of blue Spinel spot-like inclusions. The more recent material is closer in appearance to the K2 Afghanite.
A very interesting new product line which has up to now only been available in hearts, spheres and most recently standing free forms. Excellent polished finish. Very nice rare new material.
