Prior to this discovery, it had mostly been mined in Russia who was doing a steady trade throughout Europe, but the gemstone captured the public imagination in America when samples were unveiled at the Centennial Exhibition in 1876. The impunity and size of the Colorado Amazonite eventually forced Russian dealers out of business.
