Johachidolite is an exceptionally rare gem material that became available nearly a decade ago. The finds around Mogok, Burma produced quite a few stones in the lower ranges of quality - there was always quite a dearth of stones that showcase both fine color and clarity. This was particularly true of stones of any significant size - say, more than 0.15 ct. Now that this find has dried up entirely, the lack of truly fine pieces is even more acute. Admittedly not the deepest of colors (though quite a pleasant yellow), nevertheless this stone is remarkable for its size and quality. We had almost no gems over 1/2 carat in this species, let alone that was very nearly eye clean. Even rarer now that we are never offered this material. With GIT mini report.
