Natures bounty is not limited to, air, light and
water. Its generosity has also provided us with
gemstone worth millions. They are formed by
simple molecules or individual elements in
repeating chains, sheets or three-dimensional
arrangements.
These molecules are differently arranged in
different gemstones, which determine the
characteristics of the stone. In fact, the gem
information can be done on the basis of the
arrangement of the molecules.

PRECIOUS GEMSTONES AND THEIR COMPOSITION

• Interestingly, gemstones have been classified
  into precious an semi-precious classes. This
  depends on the way the minerals have coagulated
  to form the gemstones or how abundant they are.

DIAMONDS
They are made of carbon atoms are considered to
be the hardest material on earth. In fact,
diamond cutters are used for cutting
glass. Diamonds are found in various places on
earth and are formed under extreme temperature
and pressure.

EMERALDS
They are formed by minerals called beryl, which
has a chemical formula with a mix of beryllium,
aluminum, silicon and oxygen. Additional traces
of Chromium and Vanadium lead to the color which
the gemstone offers.

RUBIES
Ruby gemstone is formed of a mineral called
corundum, which comprises aluminum oxide. The red
shade is formed by dashes of Chromium present in
it. Corundum also forms sapphires in several
colors caused by the presence of trace mixtures
of iron, titanium and chromium.

  hardness, luster, color, density and magnetism.
  They are also identified in the manner they break
  or the type of streak they leave with a streak
  tool.

  gemstones and their composition from the
  Internet. Otherwise, you can also speak to a
