AfricaGems.com is an Internet wholesale gemstone company offering a variety of fine quality natural gemstones to the public, gemstone dealers and jewelers. AfricaGems.com was founded by owner Marc Sarosi in 1997 when he realized the power of the Internet to bring fine quality gemstones to everyone.
History
Marc Sarosi was born and raised in Southern California and is the son of well known jeweler Andrew Sarosi. Marc is a graduate of the University of California with degrees in Geological Science and Geography, with an emphasis in mineralogy and satellite mapping, and has a unique background as an American mining for gemstones in Africa. Marc spent several years building on his college degree by first working as a geologist prospecting for emeralds in Africa and then as a miner mining for aquamarine. In the mid‐1980s Marc acquired the mining rights to the famous Kapilinkesa aquamarine mine which he actively mined for 4 years and which produced some of the world’s finest aquamarine. The videos below show some of the difficulties of gemstone mining in Africa and unique techniques developed used while mining in this environmentally sensitive areas. The Kapilinkesa mine is no longer producing.
Marc introduced a rare parti-color tourmaline from Lundazi, Zambia to the gemstone world as well as having a hand in the identification of recently discovered (1997) Namibian demantoid garnets.
Marc has been an advocate for ethical Internet gemstones sales from the beginning. In 2001, Marc, as part of a group of e-commerce gem dealers, spoke out against misrepresentation of gemstones for sale on line in a colored-stone.com article.
