From a new find in the Morogoro district of Tanzania. This material has attracted a lot of attention since the original Australian deposit was mined out and prices skyrocketed . This material is always directional, meaning the lattice pattern appears and disappears depending on the viewing angle. Really exciting stuff!
Lattice Sunstone from Tanzania is known for its distinct grid-like pattern and aventurescence, caused by light reflecting off internal inclusions such as hematite or goethite. This optical effect creates a golden shimmer that sets this variety apart from standard sunstones.
