Beryls are a family of gemstone that include emerald, aquamarine, beryl (green & red), morganite (yellow), and heliodor (pink). Where is the only place in the world that red beryl, a rare, deep red variety of beryl, is mined?

Mozart gets it !

"Red Beryl is the rarest form of beryl, which includes emeralds and aquamarines. The only crystals suitable for faceting are found in the Wah Wah Mountains (the Violet Claims), near Beaver, Utah. Currently, this is the only place in the world where gem quality Red Beryl is found." - FirstScience.com
