野外宝石学:建立研究收藏并了解宝石矿床的形成
自2008年以来,GIA已在六大洲开展了90多次实地考察,积累了超过22,000件彩色宝石参考样品。这些来源明确的彩色宝石藏品为GIA的地理产地鉴定研究提供了有力支持。
Geographic Origin Determination of Alexandrite
The geographic source of this rare color-change gem has a significant impact on value. Trace element chemistry profiles allow GIA to accurately determine origin for alexandrite from several countries.
A Review of Analytical Methods Used in Geographic Origin Determination of Gemstones (英语)
Geographic origin determination relies on a combination of gemological observations and advanced analytical tools. This contribution reviews the analytical methods commonly used to establish origin.
Geographic Origin Determination of Paraíba Tourmaline
Copper-bearing gem tourmaline, known as Paraíba tourmaline after the location of its original discovery, is prized for its vivid blue to green color. This article explains GIA’s use of quantitative chemical analyses to distinguish samples from Brazil, Nigeria, and Mozambique.
Geology of Corundum and Emerald Gem Deposits: A Review
Over the last two decades, knowledge of the formation of gem deposits has improved significantly. This article reviews the state of our knowledge of the geology and genesis of gem corundum and emerald deposits.
Geographic Origin Determination of Emerald
The relative chemical diversity of emeralds from different deposits worldwide allows clear origin determination in most cases. This contribution explains the criteria used by GIA to make geographic origin conclusions for emeralds.
Cobalt-Coated Sapphire
The New York lab recently identified a sapphire entirely covered with a cobalt coating to enhance its blue color.
The Rare Sun Diamond
An eye-visible cloud with a star-like pattern is highlighted by the cut of the Rare Sun diamond.
