- *********MOLDAVITE*********
- From a scientific standpoint, Moldavite is classified in the tektite family with a hardness
of about seven ( diamond being a
ten ). The beautiful green translucent color of Moldavite is produced by the presence of
iron in combination with
aluminum. It is the only known tektite that has a gemstone clarity which permits it to be
cut into faceted stones. Scientific
dating of Moldavite places it about 14.8 million years of age and most authorities agree
that is extraterrestrial in origin.
Moldavite is a rare mineral mined only in several small sites in the Bohemia and Moravia
regions of Czech Republic. The
Bohemian sites are near the Moldau River . It is from this river that Moldavite gets it's
name.
