Inside The Gem Trade: Pigeon’s Blood Ruby | In Search Of Precious Stones | Ep 2/4 | CNA Documentary

Look at Tim's Adventures. He is a Saphire Miner in Australia. Very interesting!

I love sapphire, I just bought a nice 6ct "Red" sapphire ( Ruby) for pennies on the dollar because the person thought red was a worthless color of sapphire. No idea what they had. To them it was a worthless sapphire to me it was an exceptional ruby

That is insane and for someone to not know that a red "sapphire" is a ruby is insane but lucky for you. That's why i always wonder which do we consider a pink sapphire...a poor quality ruby or a fancy sapphire? @@Tootnscoot

Hi wow goodluck we have gem to sell

You Welcome # ⭐️

Queen sandy Brown I purchased one recently (along with a Wello, both from Ethiopia) set with Iolite in an Art Nouveau design ring which I gifted to a friend on her 60th birthday. 😄

Well it you want a gem then you'll have to go there yourself. Will cost you $10G + plane ticket with room/ board. How much would you pay the miners for a gem?

Buy Australian opal. There are several unique types. In my opinion, black opal is the best but you may prefer a different type. Buy directly from the market, not off some dodgey middleperson. A favorite channel of mine is 'blackopaldirect'. The main man is Justin and his all female crew and they're all gems.

People mining depend on it for their livelihood .. they r not from a very well developed country n are not with money.. mining is what is running their house.. if everybody thinks like you these people will not survive even after putting so much effort.. us buying these gemstones is keeping their life afloat

I also have ..how can i contact you ?

Opal indonesia is very unique...very rich of play color.

no that kind of quality wouldn't worth thousand dollar. most likely around 50, or hundred under a good sales people. I am talking about the opal, even under torchlight the fire is dim...

You know nothing about the gem trade. These people all over the world get paid good money to mine for Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, Tanzanite, Alexandrite, etc. Not to mention many swallow very expensive specimens and dig them out later. Most gems these people dig out are worth less money than they are being paid. The multi thousand $ specimens you talk of are found maybe a carat for every 1,000 lbs of earth that is searched

@@nathankeel4308 I don't believe that, I'm 70 years old, since I can remember I was taught the people in third world countries needed our help, it is 70 years later, and the problems are the same. The system is set up so the poor remain poor, and the rich will benefit, slavery still the same, only legal now.

@@dianagette4796 Yeah that's the problem, Diana, you were "taught" something, and maybe that something wasn't the whole story.

@@thomervin7450 I'm not quite sure what you mean by your comment? I am however curious. Growing up in the 50's what kid didn't hear at the dinner table? " finish your food, there are children starving in Africa" Watched all the babies with flies in their eyes and sad music on the television, explaining it would only take 25 cents a day to feed one child, heard John Lennon sing "So this is Christmas" about a thousand times, sponsored a child for 15 years, watched Live Aid, thinking we would be the generation that would solve the problem. We didn't, its only gotten worse, and I wonder why? What went wrong? What is the whole story?

@cuth evayo I concur.

You just don't know what the best Indonesian black opal is like. you think euthopia is the best when it comes to black opal? try to find out again how good the beauty of BO Indonesia is.

Ethiopian black opal can fetch the equal amount in price n is just as beautiful

@@eliseoreyes1858 it’s very nice, but no, it isn’t as extraordinary.

@@eliseoreyes1858 no

In indonesia they've got much more beautiful opals. And 10x more cheap... How was that possible?

@@mohdazfarazahar4516 cheap isn’t quality. If you knew Lightning Ridge you’d know Indonesian opals aren’t even close.

to be polite to the the owner and buyer...we're not trying to measure their wallets just to appreciate the industry and the product

If the Poor Miner was made to stop mining then The Poor Miner would starve .Or Pimp out his daughters . He is making an honest Living. Look people every Job Occupation and company is structured like a Pyramid . Society is a Pyramid in it's self. With this said it is The Government Regulators who keep the poorest Poor. With Barriers to entry and millions of "REULATIONS Across every occupation known to man. Which only strangles the free market. The Free Market is Like a River and will flow unobstructed . When it has an obstruction or a problem it by nature cuts a new path of least resistance. Problem is Every time the Market Makes a Drastic Step in progress. Here Comes The Inefficient Out of Touch Governments who Dam it back up. In the end it is all relative. The Poor Miner is Prod of his trade and the work he does employees and feeds the whole crew. Stop degrading aka putting down people and calling them poor. He may not think he is poor relative to his environment. As long as the is Gold Gems and or any precocious metal there will be some Poor Guy Hunting it. It has been that way for 1000's of years

True. It's the dealers that are trying to make them appear rare. In Mozambique for example you can mine several large rubies per ton of earth while you can only recover a single carat rough diamond per 10 tons or more of earth at any mines. In Colombia you will see many large emeralds mined at the mines easily or being sold at the market while you hardly see large diamonds even from the diamond capitals of the world. I don't think colored stones are rarer than diamonds. Some are rarer than white diamonds but those are the finest qualities but most of them are readily available. The rarest and most valued gems are still the natural color diamonds like orange, red, violet, purple, blue, green and pink.

@@pumpkindiamond994 the whole gem business is a farce, always has been, or at least since De Beers monopolized the diamond industry. None of the gems have any intrinsic value the way precious metals have, there are grades but no organized market like there is for gold, silver and platinum and despite what you see in the movies it's difficult to cash gems in and their cash value is unpredictable. Then there's the matter of heat treatments, conflict gems, lab grown and other synthetic gems, it's an ideal industry for scams. But when cut and polished right gems are unbelievably beautiful.

@@toobalkain you're spreading bullshit💩information again! Gems has been valued long before De Beers coined their famous phrase 'A diamond is forever'. Gems has been valued for over 20, 000 of years! Behind every human drama in history there is a fascinating stone that casts its magic spell that made people go die for them. Gold is as liquid as money coz it is not unique! Gems are unique, no two are alike that is why they are the rarest and highest priced object on earth per volume of weight! Gold can also be now synthesized in a laboratory and ignoramus don't know that. Goldmines are also destructive to the environment amd have funded civil wars as well throughout history. In fact there is more enough gold in the ocean than there are gold underneath the earth! Gems are the most beautiful object on earth and gold jewelry is mediocre without a gem! Now do you think there is any gold object out there sold for $4 million dollars per carat!? 10 years from now this diamond will be worth $70 million! Gold don't appreciate in value that fast! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B2z7S6OhZ9A.html
