Manufacturing Birthstones
Five sources that give us unique gifts of fortune, the Devine Jewels are indeed
beyond common human’s reach. Mostly found in the Mines. Those found from the
metamorphic rocks are actually hard procured and very precious. Even the organic
and sedimentary jewels are quite precious. The chemical sources of getting the
birthstone and the jewels are indeed man made and can be available at much lower
prices. The chemical gem and birthstones are also easily available. In the present
contest we would concentrate on the metamorphic gems and jewels primarily.
Metamorphic jewel always found in form of large stone slabs. These are formed
down under the fourth or fifth layer of the earth’s strata. Basked for thousand is of year
under the warmth of nature’s womb, in the deep gravels of earth, these jewels and
gems change their colours and shades in a continuous never –ending process.
Many times, when the earth’s womb bois up to throw the volcanic lavas, these gems
and jewels appear and some of the liquid lava gradually shape up to form the most
sought-after gems and the jewels also. That is, however, a very long process again.
Now this metamorphic wealth can be found in three sources, (i) Metamorphic rock,
(ii) Igneous Rock and (iii) Sedimentary rock
(ii) Igneous rock: These are founds from the underground fire-pits, meteorites
fallen from above and the lava out of the volcanoes. As these rocks or pieces of stone
cool by the rules of nature they turn into gems. In such cases, it mostly becomes very
difficult to fish out the hard transparent gem. When successfully acquired these
stone slabs are called Pegmatite or Igneous Rocks. In the picture an igneous rock
has been explained.

(i) The Metamorphic rock: this is a high quality self-changing stone stratum where
the gem shapes as the Nature’s bounty. These are believed to form into gems and
jewels after the conches wherein the hard rocky stratum work as the base on which
the pressures of the earth’s upper strata and the continual hear that grows.
Automatically, to shape them. Them process is quite interesting, as for example,
when the collections of mud or the mounds of soft soil turn into very hard of these
form into garnets. Similarly, the limestone produces the marbles. In the similar
process of pressures from tremendous hear, a slab of the slab of the coal (carbon)
turning into a rock of diamond takes about seven thousand years and the mica sheet,
mud and soft soil blocks take about three thousand hears to become the garnet
blocks. If that garnet block undergoes the similar hear process for about one
thousand years that would change into a slab of ruby. This is exactly why, the jewels
and gems founds in metamorphic sources are more precious than the gold digged
out of the mines.
(i) Sedimentary Rock: When the trees-plants, insects-bacteria, longs, besides
animals and creatures, die and be slowly drifted over some thousand year to the
earth’s the forces of nature’s changing seasons and onslaughts and turn into hard
rock – produce some precious jewels and the gems founds from there are light as
wood, also smooth and glowing because the fossilized rock down under the earth’s
strata. Generally opals, cat’s eye pieces, moons –atones lapis lajuli, period’s are
founds here, in which one can identify watery softness, that indeed gives them the
smoothness and the glow
