KYANITE:

Kyanite derives from the ancient  Greek word for blue, 'kyanos'. And what a blue! Fine Nepali

kyanite can resemble the finest sapphire. Kyanite was a gem far better known to mineral

collectors until more recent finds in the Kali Gandaki river region of west central Nepal, the

first source to produce a significant amount of facet grade kyanite. Prior to the Nepal

discoveries, Brazil was a major source of mineral specimen material, but kyanite also

occurs in a variety of locations around the world.
