Exploring Tajikistan and Afghanistan with Gary Bowersox, the Gem Hunter!
A new book with up to date research on Spinels, Rubies and Emeralds in Afghanistan & Tajikistan is in the works. Not yet available.
According to Bowersox, “we are printing only two copies at this time with plans to print additional copies after articles on the Tajikistan Spinels and Rubies are published by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA.)”
In the meantime, you can read portions of the manuscript here!
