Ruby in Zoisite

Ruby in Zoisite is a naturally occurring combination stone featuring vibrant pink to red ruby crystals embedded within green zoisite, often accented by black hornblende inclusions. The striking contrast of colors makes each tumble stone visually unique, with no two pieces alike.

Origin & Locality

Ruby in Zoisite is primarily sourced from Tanzania, where it was first discovered in the 1950s. Smaller deposits have been found in other regions of East Africa, but Tanzanian material remains the most well-known and widely used.

Metaphysical Properties

Many people work with this stone to encourage emotional healing, motivation, and balanced personal power while maintaining a sense of calm and compassion.

Interesting Facts

Ruby in Zoisite is UV reactive. Under ultraviolet (UV) light, the ruby inclusions may fluoresce, often glowing pink or red due to the chromium content within the ruby.
