The two beads of fuchsite-quartzite are particularly interesting, because this rare mineral was never used at Mohenjo-daro. A large cup, carved in almost pure fuchsite was found there, together with a collection of copper and bronze tools and other objects. The colour of this stone is light green and its source is most probably Mysore.
