Here are some very large and rare emerald specimens I thought some might enjoy. They are not mine, and the price on the largest one is 35k. whao

Chris,

All I know is that they were mined in Brazil-Bahia. These will probably be on display in Tucson since the fellow who owns them will be set up at the InnSuites show Jan 27 - Feb 10. Here's a link to these and several other items for sale:

I've traded a few rubies and sapphires with the owner since he currently collects corundum. He had Carolina Corundum on his wish list since he still hoped for more samples in his collection.

I bought some mine rough (on ebay) that came from brazil; perhaps from the Minas Gerais area, that had emerald crystals in it. in 3 pounds of rough, @ $8/pound, I had maybe 50 emeralds (similar to the color above) that were 1/4" or larger. If I find the name later, I'll post it
