Geoepicenter was fortunate enough to receive this photo, courtesy of Jeff Swanger, Oceanview Mine. Aptly named the Prince of Pala, this baseball sized specimen of beryl was found late in November of 2008, in a nice gem pocket. Incidentally this beauty sold for $40,000.
Note that the Pala Oceanview mine is privately owned. To tour it requires an appointment. To make reservations, click here: http://www.digforgems.com
