I could not find any information on Zoisite from Afghanistan on Mindat. I was able to find one purple specimen of Zoisite from Laghman Province and two green-gray (or slightly pink looking from another direction) specimens from Nangahar Province on a Google search. I do not have all the old labels for this specimen and the only information I have is that it is "Tanzanite from Afghanistan."

One of my favorite specimens of beryl. ( I hope I stated that correctly). This specimen comes from a special mine and in my opinion from a very special miner.

I appreciate your kind comments, Pierre.

I really like your fluorite with hematite phantoms.
