Spinel
These were found recently, in the end of 2009. And, this is a rather large and complete spinel for the find with unusual hot pink-red color and good symmetry (rare in this size). This crystal is 89 grams and complete all around. And NOTE when cut, the finest of this locality of the hot strawberry pinks bring up to $25, 000 a carat! There are probably gem zones inside if you cob it, small ones anyhow. But most specimens from this find are small and partial. Large crystals like this were exceedingly rare. This is one of the largest my sources know of from the find, in complete and worthy specimen quality
