Corundum Gemstone: The Backbone of Rubies and Sapphires
The corundum gemstone family is a geological marvel, producing two of the most prized stones—ruby and sapphire. You’ll learn that when corundum takes on a red hue, it becomes ruby; in other colors, it’s sapphire. Known for its durability, it ranks just under diamond on the Mohs scale. That toughness symbolizes resilience and clarity. Corundum is used in both jewelry and metaphysical practices for focus and strength. It’s one of the most versatile minerals. Tree of Life Gems offers raw corundum in its purest ruby form.
