One of the most sought after gemstones from the US is Montana Sapphire. The most famous locality for blue US Sapphire is the Yogo mine, but it is not the only locality. Montana is one of the largest producers of gem grade Sapphire rough in the world. Every color of Sapphire imaginable comes from Yogo and Rock Creek and has been producing Sapphire since the start of the 20th century and still does to this day. I absolutely love US gems and Montana Sapphires are at the top of the list. All of the rough produced from Montana is alluvial and obtained through placer mining. Most of the material found is flat and yields wide flat stones, or small well cut stones.
This gem has a bright and pretty ice blue color with flashes of bright green. The stone just gleams in the sunlight! The stone flashes so prettily on the hand with excellent light return. There is a pastel quality to the color that is soft yet distinct. This stone will look so wonderful once set into jewelry! The stone measures 4.23 mm in diameter, and the depth is 3.14 mm. Enjoy!
