The rush was due to the exceptional color, clarity and size of the precious stones found there. Discovered in alluvium, in the core of a wild forest located in the Ankeniheny-Zahamena national park, sapphires and rubies required holes from 50 centimeters to 2 meters depth to be extracted. Following the arrival of 40,000 people on the occurrence, the government ordained to evacuate the area in June 2012 and the access was denied. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Didy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
