Ron’s Hunt for Tanzanite Day 6

Ron LeBlanc, co-host of Travel Channel's Gem Hunt series, returns to Tanzania to reconnect with his contacts and buy tanzanite. In part 2, Ron recounts a nasty run-in with the militia on the streets of Arusha as well as other surprises...

CRISIS! It had to happen, really. We have a special weekend double-bill for you today from Ron's audio diary! Two reports from Arusha on the tanzanite gem hunt: Ron talks about the Maasai market, using (Bernie Gabourie) Gemhunter's "grandfather" bargaining technique on a big 50+ct "monster" stone ... and Ron and Jeff have a run-in with the militia ... hijinks ensue! It's just another day for a risk-taking gem hunter on the front lines of the international gem trade!
