RUBY
I have completed cleaning the mine rough Ruby specimens. This is a proprietary process
and takes about two weeks per specimen. However, the results are outstanding and worth the effort. These highly desirable
specimens come from Mysore, Karnataka, India. Noted as being the source for the best
fluorescent Corundum (Ruby) in the world. This rare location is described in "Fluorescence, Gems and Minerals Under Ultraviolet
Light" by Manuel Robbins. These Rubies fluoresce a deep cherry red when
exposed to longwave UV light. No collection is complete without one of these fantastic specimens. Beautiful under natural
light, incredible under LW-UV. Every specimen has numerous crystals covering all sides.
