On February 22nd there was an astounding discovery in Zambia. Gemfields announced that they had unearthed a 6,225 carat rough cut emerald. This has to be one of the larger rough emeralds ever discovered in the world. Speaking of large, it is no wonder that Gemfields discovered this emerald, as it is one of the largest gemstone mining companies in the world. They have mining fields in most of the major gemstone locations worldwide.
Gemfields said that after examining the internal structure of the emerald, they feel it will "yield a number of cut gems of significant size".
