Welcome to the Tanzanite Man
Tanzanite is my passion
I started collecting minerals as a young child. I would walk around my neighborhood breaking large rocks hoping for gemstones. Since then I have been collecting most of my life. Once tanzanite was introduced into my life, I became obsessed! After selling my first company www.lumieworld.com I became an expert in the Tanzanite mineral and trade.
From mine to market
My connections in Arusha are the top Tanzanite dealers in the region. They've taken me deep into the mines to see how the process works and I've invested with them in Tanzanite projects. Right now it is nearly impossible to get crystals out of the country or the mining area of Mererani. Together we work to bring the best investment grade tanzanite to the US market. I strongly believe that these stones will be mined out and now is the time to acquire what is still available. As an avid investor, I believe Tanzanite stone is also one of the best investments of our lifetime.
Into the Tanzanite Mines
Exclusive look behind the walls of Mererani and Inside the Tanzanite Mines!
The Video below shows me going behind the restricted walls of Mererani where all the tanzanite trade happens. It is near impossible to get in as a foreigner, but through my connections, I was able to get inside. From there you can watch me buy tanzanite from the miners and then actually go into the mines themselves where I eventually freak out with claustrophobia! Check out the 20 minute video below.
