Product Description

This rare emerald specimen from Pakistan has natural hexagonal crystals of emerald,  in their original metamorphic host rock. The piece weighs 40 grams with more than 20 carats of emerald-bearing material and displays light to medium green coloration with semi-transparent clarity. Formed millions of years ago inside high-pressure metamorphic zones, this specimen shows the classic geological structure of emeralds found in the Chitral Valley of Pakistan.

The dark host matrix is composed of biotite and mica schist, providing strong contrast that highlights the crystal formations. Completely untreated and genuine, this emerald specimen is ideal for mineral collectors, gem enthusiasts, geologists, and display. It is a single, unique fine mineral specimen with scientific, aesthetic, and collectible importance.
