## Gemstones

- [World of Preciousness](https://gem-experience.com/world-of-preciousness/): how a coloured stone is judged, and the gemstones of the East African belt.
- [Malaya Garnet](https://gem-experience.com/world-of-preciousness/malaya-garnet/): Found by local miners in the Umba River Valley in the 1990s: a garnet of exceptional fire, once an outcast, now a hidden gem.
- [Rhodolite](https://gem-experience.com/world-of-preciousness/rhodolite/): The rose garnet: a fusion of almandine and pyrope, carried as an amulet in Rome, Egypt and Greece, and mined in Tanzania's Umba River Valley.
- [Spinel](https://gem-experience.com/world-of-preciousness/spinel/): The stone that spent six centuries in the Crown Jewels under the wrong name. Mahenge spinel from the East African belt — its colour, its hardness and its legends.
- [Tanzanite](https://gem-experience.com/world-of-preciousness/tanzanite/): A trichroic stone from one hill at the foot of Kilimanjaro, a thousand times scarcer than diamond. The legend, the colours and the rarity of tanzanite.
- [Tsavorite](https://gem-experience.com/world-of-preciousness/tsavorite/): The green garnet discovered in Tanzania in 1967, four times rarer than emerald. The discovery, the brilliance and the rarity of tsavorite.
