#45 F188-001a Citrine 15.5mm Trillion 12.82cts TA

Naturally forming citrine has been found all around the world, though it's very rare today. Discoveries have been made in the Ural Mountains of Russia, Madagascar, Kazakhstan, and elsewhere. Today, most all citrine on the market is mined as amethyst or smokey quartz from Brazil and Uruguay. There, geodes are discovered with large, delicately grown crystals inside, allowing for larger cut gems to be cut from the production.
