The remarkable specimens offered here are especially noteworthy due to their uniquely beautiful pure diamond white colour, and their origin, which you will see above. To simply call them rare is an understatement of note !It is well known that Nigeria has become a major supplier of rough colored gemstones over the past couple of decades, and this is likely to remain the case well into the foreseeable future.Gemstone mining in Nigeria has always been haphazard, and largely dominated by very small scale artisanal miners.
