Blue Kyanite Cabochon, Revelstoke, BC, Canada 9ct

Material collected by: Herb Hyder
This blue kyanite really is a challenge to cut and polish!! Probably one of the most challenging stones I've cut!! I think it turned out well!! This piece is fairly gemmy with a nice bright schiller!! there are quite a few fractures in this material, i tried my best to get as solid of a cabochon as I could. 18x12x5mm
