EMERALD
Emerald is a variety of the mineral beryl, colored green by trace amounts of chromium and sometimes vanadium. It is one of the most valuable and desirable colored gemstones. The word “emerald” is derived from Vulgar Latin: esmaralda/esmaraldus, a variant of Latin smaragdus, which originated in Greek: σμάραγδος (smaragdos; “green gem”). The green color of emeralds is due to the presence of chromium and vanadium. The color can vary from yellow-green to blue-green, with the most valuable emeralds being a pure green with no hints of blue or yellow. The most famous emerald mines are located in Colombia, but emeralds are also found in other countries such as Brazil, Zambia, and Afghanistan.

SAPPHIRE
Sapphire is a precious gemstone, a variety of the mineral corundum, consisting of aluminum oxide with trace amounts of elements such as iron, titanium, chromium, copper, or magnesium. It is typically blue, but natural “fancy” sapphires also occur in yellow, purple, orange, and green colors. The only color that sapphire cannot be is red – as red colored corundum is called ruby, another corundum variety. Pink-colored corundum may be either classified as ruby or sapphire depending on locale. Commonly, natural sapphires are cut and polished into gemstones and worn in jewelry. They also may be created synthetically in laboratories for industrial or decorative purposes in large crystal boules. Because of the remarkable hardness of sapphires.
RUBY
Ruby is a precious gemstone known for its deep red color and exceptional brilliance. It is a variety of the mineral corundum, which also includes sapphire. Ruby is formed when aluminum oxide (Al2O3) is combined with chromium (Cr), which gives it its characteristic red hue. The name “ruby” is derived from the Latin word “ruber,” meaning red.
Ruby is primarily found in metamorphic rocks, such as marble and schist, as well as in basaltic rocks. It is also found in alluvial deposits, where it is often associated with other gemstones like sapphire and garnet. The most significant sources of ruby include Myanmar (formerly Burma), Thailand, Sri Lanka, and Madagascar.

OPAL
Opal is a unique gemstone known for its mesmerizing play-of-color, which is a phenomenon where the stone exhibits a spectrum of colors that seem to change and shift as the stone is moved. This phenomenon is caused by the diffraction of light as it passes through tiny silica spheres within the opal. Opal is composed of hydrated silica, and its chemical formula is SiO2·nH2O.
Opal is typically found in sedimentary rocks, particularly in areas where silica-rich water has seeped into cracks and crevices. The most significant sources of opal include Australia, Ethiopia, Mexico, and Brazil. Australia, in particular, is known for producing some of the finest opals in the world, including the highly prized black opal.
CHRYSOBERLY
Chrysoberyl is a mineral consisting of beryllium aluminate (BeAl2O4). Chrysoberyl occurs in granitic and gneissic rocks, and in associated pegmatites. It also occurs in mica schists in the Ural Mountains, and in quartz veins in Brazil. Chrysoberyl is found in the gemstone varieties of alexandrite (which changes color in different lighting conditions) and cat’s eye (which exhibits chatoyancy). The name chrysoberyl is derived from the Greek words χρυσός chrysos and βήρυλλος beryllos, meaning “a gold-white spar”.

OTHERS
Other popular gemstones include amethyst, jade, garnite and many more. Amethyst is a variety of quartz known for its purple color, ranging from light lavender to deep violet. Jade, composed of carbon, is the hardest known natural material. Garnite, another corundum variety, comes in a range of colors, including blue, pink, yellow, and green, with the most prized being the deep blue “cornflower blue.”
