New Gemstones custom cut at Precision Gem

What's New at Precision Gem

The 2026 Tucson Gem Shows are all over now, I'm starting to work through some of the new rough. Pictured below are a few pieces of the many new gems I was able to acquire this year.

Rubellite Tourmaline

A nice large piece from Madagascar. Good quality rubellite tourmaline has become very scarce, I was really happy to find this piece. (Except for the price!)

Rubellite Tourmaline

Spinel from Tundra Tanzania.

Mint Green Garnet

One of several parcels of mint green garnet from Tanzania.

Montana Sapphire

Rock Creek Montana Sapphires

Teal/Green Sapphire

I bought 27 new sapphire pieces from Ilakaka Madagascar. These are all no heat gems.

Below are a few new gem parcels from my 2025 buying trip to Tucson

New Tanga Garnet

Every few years at the Tucson shows a new stone is the hot item. This year it's the "New Tanga Garnets"

Montana Sapphire

Some new Montana Sapphire rough from Rock Creek. I bought this material directly from the mining company. This is the material that most cutters are charging $1000 to $2000 per ct for finished gems.

These are from a new find in Tanzania of Mint color Chrome Tourmaline. I'm hoping to get some matched pairs from these.

Blue Tourmaline. The stone in the center I will saw into tow pieces and get a matched pair.
