These crystals exhibit the classic hexagonal emerald crystal habit associated with fine Swat emerald material. The vivid green color and natural crystal structure make them suitable for collectors, specimen enthusiasts, and lapidaries seeking quality cutting rough.
Based on the visible crystal quality, color saturation, and expected inclusions typical of emerald rough, an approximate cutting yield of 20%–30% may be achievable depending on the cutter's experience, orientation, and final shape selected. This could potentially produce approximately 1.9 to 2.9 carats of finished gemstones from the parcel.
Swat emeralds are highly regarded for their rich color and are often compared favorably with some of the world's finest emerald sources. Every crystal in this parcel is completely natural and untreated in rough form.
