Magnesio-axinite of this color is quite unusual from any location. This was found in the Tanzanite mines of Tanzania. They are notoriously damaged, this one has a pleasing pink-lilac color, is well crystallized and only has a little damage on the right bottom corner. Very difficult to replace as these don't come out often.
