Miss Tanzania
The new Miss Universe Tanzania 2011 was crowned last night during a glittering ceremony at the Golden Tulip Hotel in the capital city of Dar Es Salaam. Representing her East African nation at Miss Universe 2011 will be Nelly Kamwera. First runner-up was Nima Kilango; second runner-up was Yaceba Asenga. Some of our most astute scholars of African pageants might recognize Nelly - she was Miss Tanzania 2008 second runner-up. The Miss Universe Tanzania 2011 contest was sponsored by Vodacom Tanzania, which has sponsored the Miss World Tanzania contest in the past. We'll see if they sponsor both this year. Nelly is pure Tanzanite and we expect her to do well at Miss Universe 2011! What is tanzanite you ask? Our students in jewelry design will tell that according to Wikipedia, Tanzanite is the blue/purple variety of the mineral zoisite which was discovered in the Mererani Hills of Northern Tanzania in 1967, near the city of Arusha and Mount Kilimanjaro. It is used as a gemstone. Tanzanite is noted for its remarkably strong trichroism, appearing alternately sapphire blue, violet and burgundy depending on crystal orientation.
