Definisi Batu Mulia (Wikipedia)
• Gemstone (also called precious or semi-precious stone) is a
piece of mineral crystal, which, in cut and polished form, is
used to make jewelry or other adornments.
• Certain rocks (such as lapis lazuli) or organic materials that are
not minerals (such as amber or jet), are also used for jewelry,
and are therefore often considered to be gemstones as well.
• Most gemstones are hard, but some soft minerals are used in
jewelry because of their luster or other physical properties that
have aesthetic value.
• Rarity is another characteristic that lends value to a gemstone
• The traditional classification of gemstone begins with a
distinction between precious and semi-precious.
• In modern usage the precious stones are diamond, ruby,
sapphire and emerald, with all other gemstones being semi-
precious
Gemstone Clasification
• Gemstones are classified by their color, translucency and hardness.
• Use of the terms 'precious' and 'semi-precious' in a commercial context is, arguably,
misleading in that it deceptively implies certain stones are intrinsically more valuable than
others, which is not the case.
• Gemstones are identified by gemologists, who describe gems and their characteristics
using technical terminology specific to the field of gemology: chemical composition, crystal
system, and habit (the form the gem is usually found in)
• Gemstones are classified into different groups, species, and varieties. For example, ruby is
the red variety of the species corundum, while any other color of corundum is considered
sapphire. Other examples are the Emerald (green), aquamarine (blue), red beryl (red),
goshenite (colorless), heliodor (yellow), and morganite (pink), which are all varieties of the
mineral species beryl.
• Gems are characterized in terms of refractive index, dispersion, specific gravity, hardness,
cleavage, fracture, and luster. They may exhibit pleochroism or double refraction. They may
have luminescence and a distinctive absorption spectrum.
• Material or flaws within a stone may be present as inclusions.
• Gemstones may also be classified in terms of their "water". This is a recognized grading of
the gem's luster and/or transparency and/or "brilliance". Very transparent gems are
considered "first water", while "second" or "third water" gems are those of a lesser
transparency.
