Tanzanite is one of the most fascinating and well-known bluish gemstones in today's gem industry and belongs to the Zoisite mineral group. Not until 1967 that this unbelievably rare gemstone was found at the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. The Tanzanite, and the event that led to its birth, represents the gemstone's ability to transform negative energy into positive energy. Due to its pleochroic nature, Tanzanite appears to change colour when viewed from different angles. The fluidity and shifting of colour are thought to aid in attaining a higher level of consciousness.
