Danburite
Science & Origin of Danburite
Danburite is a calcium boron silicate mineral that forms in small prismatic crystals, similar to Topaz. Its color can range from a white to light yellow, and also a light shade of brown. Very high quality Danburite is colorless and usually transparent. Sometimes it can even be found with a druzy coating of Quartz over it. Jewelers love cutting this material due to the gems clarity and resilience. A cut Danburite gemstone can reach upwards of $10,000.
This mineral was first discovered in 1839 by Charles Shepard, and named after the location it was found in, Danbury, Connecticut. This locality was never officially documented and became lost in time. It's presumed that the actual city of Danbury was built right on top of the location where it was rumored to be. Since then, Danburite has been found in Russia, Mexico, Bolivia, Myanmar, Japan and Madagascar. A recent Danburite discovery in the town of Macomb, New York has reignited the interest in America’s endless Danburite search.
