Ruby’s are Red and all other Corundum are Sapphires. The name is from Sanskrit “kuruvinda” meaning Ruby. A rare sapphire is a Padparadscha which is a pinky peach colour, found in Sri Lanka. Ruby is the second hardest natural mineral. The Element Chromium is what causes the Red colour in Ruby. The best shade of red for a Ruby is Pigeon Blood Red. Ruby can be any shade of red up to almost pink. They are the most amazing Gemstone and in my mind way better than Blood Diamonds.

EPIDOTE CRYSTAL STACK SPECIMEN
An outstanding Epidote Crystal Stack Specimen. Hard to come by with some well defined hexagonal Epidote Crystal formation. This material is weakly magnetic. There is a neo magnet showing attractive force. My photos do no justice to this specimen as it looks much better in person.
