Zultanite is a unique gemstone variety of the mineral diaspore, and it is exclusively mined in the İlbir Mountains of Muğla Province in southwestern Turkey. This mesmerizing mineral is renowned for its remarkable color-changing properties, which shift from a kiwi green in daylight to a pinkish-champagne under incandescent light. Although the base mineral diaspore is found elsewhere, gem-quality zultanite is only found in Turkey, making it a truly exceptional mineral discovery.
