Property and curiosity about the spinel stone
The name of this stone is from the greek word “spark” or probably from the latin “punta”.
It appears in different colour tone, from black to red, similar to ruby, due to some elements as crome, iron, cobalt and In the past the Spinel was counted as rubies, for this reason, it gained the name of “big faker” of the real collections
It was often confused with the ruby, in fact the rubies of the black prince or the Timur ruby that are part of the British Crown Treasury, in the realty they aren’t rubies, but spinels
Only then it was recognised “the real nature” and included in the precious gems as mineral.
One of the cases of the confusion with the other precious stones is the proximity between the Spinelli e di Corindoni deposits
The spinels deposits are principally in Myanmar and Sri Lanka, but also in Afghanistan, Australia, Brasile, Madagascar and many other states.
The spinels are gems of type II, they generally presents few inclusions visible to the naked eye, despite the standard is eye-clean
The spinels more big never discovered are at the London British Museum and they weight 520 carats each.
