Pakistani Diopside


Pakistan Diopside

	This is a nice mix of Diopside facet rough cabbing rough and crystals From Pakistan. The colors are running from clear \ white, lemon , lime and right through to a deep chrome green. There is conservatively 10%-15% facet rough in this blind pour parcel. If you spend some time going through this material and shoot for maximizing the facet rough potential the percentage should be much higher. This parcel of rough has both solid colors and bi-colored stones. This parcel also contains many terminated crystals for specimens and a lot of cabbing rough to play with. So whether your a faceter, cabber or crystal collector you are sure to find a good value in this material. The sizes are running between 3-5cts up to and over over 147cts. I would guess the average size is over 20cts. Considering that diopside facet rough normally sells for between $2.00 per carat to well over $10.00 per carat just the facet rough alone should pay for the parcel. I just don’t have the time to go through and saw or cob this material to maximize the value in this parcel. At just $0.10 a carat for a blind pour you can’t go wrong. Order 500+cts and pay just $0.09 per carat. 1,000+cts only $0.08 per carat. There is approximately 6,000cts available.
