Tanzanite is a precious gemstone that changes colour in different lighting conditions. Although deposits are not found anywhere in the world apart from Mererani, north of Dar es Salaam, the country is not the biggest exporter of the rare gemstone. Paul Masanja, commissioner at the minerals ministry says that Tanzania comes a distant third behind India and Kenya. Masanja, quoted in local media, said that while Tanzania exported only US$38 million worth of tanzanite in 2013, Kenya and India exported US$100 million and US$300 million respectively. Smuggling is one of the primary reasons for this and involves three distinct levels.
