Bixbite

Bixbite is the rare, red variety of the Beryl family found in the rugged Wah Wah Mountains of Utah. Known by many in the gem trade as Red Emerald Bixbite remains unfamiliar to the general public. Its scarce availability is unfortunate for it is a truly beautiful Gem. Like other Beryl, Bixbite has a hardness of 7.5-8.
