Origins and Sources of Fine Ruby Gemstones
Traditionally, fine quality ruby was sourced solely from Burma. Currently, they are extremely rare and valuable, due to the low supply of quality ones. The premium price of an unheated vivid red Burma ruby (Pigeon Blood), can easily cost more than triple the Mozambique origin. Existing mines are mainly from Mozambique, Madagascar and Tanzania, with Mozambique being the world’s leading source.
Heat Treatment
In the gemstone market, due to the high demand and low supply of ruby, additional heat treatment has become acceptable. In General, the heat treatment that goes close to the melting point greatly improves the quality of the gem. This method of heat treatment effectively minimise secondary shade in the ruby rough resulting a vivid red saturation. It minimises pre-existing fine inclusions and even out the colour from the rough.
Instead of the usual high-temperature heat treatment, many precious gemstones are treated at much lower temperatures. This method of low temperature effectively removes any blue or green colour composition from the ruby and also improve the colour. However, gemological laboratories are able to detect low-temperature heat treatment, by close observation of the inclusion. Therefore, purchasing any gemstone certified with renowned certification is as important.
