## Gemology

The name derived from Greek "kassiteros" - tin, for its composition.

Facet rough is uncommon but can yield gems of exceptional fire, because of its high lustre and dispersion. With a hardness of 7, approximately the same as that of the quartz gems, cassiterite is occasionally marketed for wearable jewelry in Bolivia ("Andean diamond"), but is normally restricted to rare gem collections.

Although cassiterite is a common mineral, being the main ore of tin, it's crystals are usually black or opaque brown and of no use as a gemstone. Only a few localities yield gem quality material, which ranges from colorless to yellow to pale brown. Bolivia has traditionally been the main source of gem rough, with the Viloco mine there being the only one of Bolivia's 300 or so tin mines that occasionally yields transparent crystals. However in the late 1990s, Russia and China yielded larger transparent crystals than Bolivia. Other sporadic sources of facetting grade cassiterite include Nigeria and Namibia.
