@@HillBilly_UrbexNo, ruby is red corundum. Red beryl is also called red emerald, scarlet emerald or bixbite and is far rarer than rubies. Gemstone quality crystals are only found in the Wah Wah mountains of central Utah.
@@HillBilly_UrbexSorry, but Ruby is red Corrundum (sister to Sapphire). Red Beryl is sister to Emerald and also called Bixbite. (Zircon can be red too!)
Another easy way to identify the ruby from the fake is to just simply shove it under the blacklight - they lights up bright red. I have some terp pearls that are synthetic ruby and they indeed light up under my blacklight flashlight. And under certain white light, they look sickly pink, yet with a bit more blue in the light, you get red tint. Ruby is one interesting stuff. Synthetic and natural ruby reacts the same way to UV, so it's a bit hard to tell if it's synthetic stuff or mined though - synthetic ruby is obviously cheaper.
I did use the blacklight, however this does not differentiate between spinels and rubies. I also looked at a natural confirmed ruby under blacklight and it does not fluoresce - something about iron impurities reduce this effect for natural ones.
Природный Рубин черезвычайно дорогой! Дело в том что их практически все добыли.. То-есть их более нет в земле... Соответственно, ввиду этого цена на них невероятно высокая 📈
@@iantaggart3064Ruby is pretty easy to make. People in China are flooding the market with clear, machine-cut gems. I just bought a really beautiful 30 carat ruby off of Amazon for $25. All it takes to make a ruby is aluminum oxide power, a bit of chromium power and a really hot torch.
Just don't talk about the Ruby, Is anyone know if that one is 100% natural Spinel stone, how much you need to pay for, to own one like that colour and size. ?
How is it glass when he literally proved it's real... Also, why are you so angry at lab grown gems? They're literally the same stuff, but higher quality and they don't require the labor of African children.
It's lab corundum. Glass filled rubies are very cloudy/opaque and have many inclusions even after treatment. Though the result is a decent looking stone, they don't possess the clarity and lustre that this stone has in the video. Glass fill are produced from extremely low quality natural rubies that are so terrible looking in their original state that they wouldn't sell otherwise.
