Indeed, everything that God created was beautifully and perfectly made, including man. Man was created to have total dominion over all of God's creations, the trees and plants, the animals and the nature including the countless precious elements found in our surroundings, such as the crystals and gemstones.

Yes, these stones are one of those most fascinating things that awaken man's interests. A gemstone or gem is made up of minute fragments of natural minerals. These are then smashed into undergoing a series of mechanical and chemical changes to bring out an expensive jewelry or adornment out of a simple stone.

A gemstone can be described and distinguished being a precious or semi-precious stone rooted from the ancient Greeks. From the ancient times until now, precious gemstones serve as accessories and adornment, and could sometimes determine one's social status in life. While these gemstones such as the diamonds and emeralds are subdivided according to varieties and groups and sometimes, according to their species.

Treatments for Gemstones and Crystals

Gemstones, just like any other product, must undergo several treatments for their mysterious beauty and quality. Treatments such as heating, radiation, waxing and fracture filling are required for the gemstone to appear as attractive as it can. Despite the beauty and glamour a gemstone can bring, there are also a lot of synthetic or fake stones which are available today such as the stones cubic zirconium and moissanite.

That is why today, experts have become rigid in identifying true gemstones. These gemologists or gemstones experts have the skills to easily determine a piece of beauty that is fake or unreal. However, nowadays, the technology has become so well advanced that even without a gemologist; we can already determine the value of these precious gemstones.

It will feature gemological instruments and activities that will include international sales exhibition for minerals, fossils, crystals, gemstones, technical literatures and accessories. This event would surely bring joy to gemstones enthusiasts and will surely be another milestone in the field of Gemology, the science and study of Gemstones.
