Yellow Zircons - $8.00/ct to 30/ct
Locality: Tanzania, Africa

These stones are light to canary yellow to golden/yellow. These are very bright and admantine, they look diamond like when faceted. Barions and deep designs are my first choice for this type of rough, although it will work well in about any brilliant design. This is all high crystal Zircon.

Note: This material has been hand cleaned and preformend in many cases. If you are not familiar with this material rough, be aware that there is usually a very significant amount of this material with flaws and fissures. It is not unusual to loose 30-50% of the weight during cleaning of this rough. If you buy it uncleaned expect to have significant clarity problems and it is very difficult to tell clarity before actually grinding a window to see inside this rough. Also the clarity issues are often hidden and very difficult to work out as well as can become worse during cleaning. Once cleaned there is seldom any problem cutting this material.
