Abstract
Tanzania’s Tunduru district is a major producer of gem-quality sapphire and ruby, along with exotic gems such as alexandrite and tsavorite. And yet virtually nothing has been written about the gems from this region. This paper, based on the author’s 2009 thesis at London’s Kingston University, is an attempt to uncover the distinguishing features of the corundum gems from Tunduru.
