Chrysoberyl is a diverse mineral which is traded expensively as a valuable gemstone due to its breathtaking fire, its play of colors from soft green tones to strong golden yellow, its high hardness, purity and, last but not least, its rarity. It is particularly known for the cat's eye effect. Chrysoberyl often produces excellent twins, a specialty being the cyclic rotation triplets. Clear crystals mainly come from Sri Lanka and Brazil, collectors with fascinating paragenesis often come from Madagascar.
