Blue color rock has been found from Zanskar valley, The lemon yellow has been found from Paddar, The pink color (Ruby (from source)) has been found and cut by some immature..
All of these has been found from North India, Local people are also confused sometimes. They are not sure, So i need help to figure out the stones..
This will help us to hunt for right stones in the valley.
Thank you
