Sunstone is a mineral from the feldspar family, with orange, reddish, and brown colors and an optical aventurescence effect, primarily due to hematite inclusions, which depends on the incidence of light.
Sunstone comes from various locations around the world, including Australia, Canada, India, Mozambique, Norway, Russia, Tanzania, and the USA, with very different qualities.
The most popular are those from India, sometimes with a good optical effect, massive and without transparency.
However, the most precious, due to their gem quality, are those from Tanzania and the USA, the latter with a specific name, Oregon sunstone. In both cases, their hematite inclusions are larger and the gems are transparent.
Therefore, the value of a sunstone gemstone depends on the color, the clarity of the optical effect, and the transparency.
Tanzanian sunstone is a high-quality gemstone. The gems are orange in color and their inclusions are oriented and exsolved hematite crystals that display reddish glints and sometimes iridescence.
They come from the Uluguru Mountains, Morogoro, Tanzania.
