Exploring yet another emerald from the Swat area in Pakistan for today’s microscopemonday. It displays distinct and perfect hexagonal zoning. Same crystal, same viewing angle but under different lighting environments and the change is drastic. This is one of the best weapons for a gemologist to have in their arsenal. A very useful habit to catch on whenever you’re using the microscope and examining inclusions.
