Milenyum Mining Co. of Turkey handles the mining of Zultanite gemstones at a remote location in the Anatolian mountains of Turkey directly from the host rock at an altitude exceeding 1000 meters.

Tons of ore needs to be extracted to be able to reach these amazing crystals. With no electricity or running water, it is extremely difficult to mine at this remote location as the nearest village is 7 miles away.

The Turkish deposit remains the world's only source of Zultanite (color-change, gem quality diaspore). Genuine Zultanite is recovered using only environmentally safe mining techniques. The miners that work there are all housed and fed by our company. We have had a very positive economic impact on the lives of the miners and the surrounding community.
