I read through the colored gems knowledge section and it didn't really go into geographic origin, especially with rubies. I am currently looking at two stones:
Tanzania:

Mozambique:

My budget is 6k so if you can find better stones than these, please share. I would rather sacrifice size than treatment, it's gotta be unheated. Both of these stones are certified. Anyways, back to my main question, do either Tanzania or Mozambique hold any connotations good or bad in regards to ruby? The Mozambique one has a much better color and if there isn't any big geographic pluses/minuses on either of these stones and I can't find anything else better, I'm going to go for it. Thanks!
