Myanmar is fortunate in containing world-class gem deposits, such as the finest pigeon’s-blood-coloured ruby from the Mogok Stone Tract in Mandalay Division, the Mong Hsu ruby deposit in Shan State and imperial coloured jadeite jade from Kachin State. Rare gemstones are often found in primary gem deposits in the Mogok Stone Tract and include johachidolite and hackmanite from pegmatites, painite from leucogranite and skarn, pollucite, petalite, phenakite, pezzottaite, monazite, danburite, jeremejevite and hambergite from pegmatites in the Momeik area.
