Summary

Description
English: Corundum (Var.: Ruby)
Locality: Winza, Mpapwa, Mpapwa (Mpwampwa) District, Dodoma region, Tanzania (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.1 cm.
This is a rather equant, glassy and gemmy, rose to cherry red, doubly terminated, ruby crystal. The color is very close to the pigeon’s blood red, found in rubies. Only contacted at the bottom. This is a superb loose ruby crystal of really quite good lustre and form compared to rubies from any other locality. For this particular deposit, it is more pure red, and more gemmy, than most crystals of this size. 25 carats.
