New discoveries in the gem world are few and far between these days, so the 2011 discovery of a brand new gem, caused quite a stir at Gems TV.
Astraeolite’s name is derived from Astraea the daughter of the Greek God Zeus, who was also known as the “Star Maiden”. When you study a piece of Astraeolite you will see why. You can’t help but feel like you are looking into a starry sky.
So far the gem is only known to come out of one location in Brazil, so the extent of its rarity is as yet unknown.
