THESE stones are more expensive than diamond or platinum, it is found only at…, names are…
Diamond is considered to be the most precious and expensive gem in the world. But if we tell you that diamond is not the most expensive and rare gem in the world, will you believe it? But this is true. The world’s most expensive stone is not diamond but the rarest mineral is kyavathuite and painite. According to information, minerals are found almost everywhere on earth.
According to the Geological Society of America, minerals are naturally occurring compounds that are inorganic. This means that they do not contain carbon. The rarest mineral on Earth is called Kyawhthuite. So far only one crystal of this has been found in Myanmar.
According to the California Institute of Technology’s mineral database, it is a small deep orange gemstone. The International Mineralogical Association recognized it in 2015. Very little is known about Kyawhthuit. The name of the world’s second rare mineral is Paynite. Paynite is a deep red colored hexagonal crystal.
Although, as an exception, it is sometimes found in pink colour. Painite is now more easily available than before, but it is still rare. In 1952, gemstone collector and dealer Arthur Penn discovered two crystals in Myanmar. Pennite is named after Arthur Penn.
The second sample of Paynite was found in Myanmar in 1979 and the third sample was found in Myanmar in 2001. These are the only three samples of Paynite in the whole world.
