A rare glowing amethyst gem was found in a remote valley in Myanmar.

Kyaw Min Hlaing and his friend discovered the purple precious stone in Mogok Valley, Thabeikkyin, on October 31.

Footage shows the men flashing lights on the brilliant gem as they inspect it, revealing glowing yellow spots on its surface.

Also known as the 'Valley of Rubies,' Mogok Valley is a mountainous area famous for its amethysts, rubies, and sapphires. The area's syenitic rocks and pegmatites are considered particularly important for the formation of precious gemstones.
