Mikroskop

A minute crystal inclusion exhibiting a characteristic discoid halo fracture pattern — consistent with so-called 'snowball'-type inclusions — in which the surrounding partially healed discoid fractures provide evidence of exposure to high-temperature thermal enhancement.

Komentár

Thermal enhancement (heat treatment) of corundum is a widely accepted and commercially established standard practice within the international gem trade, provided it is fully and transparently disclosed to all parties throughout the chain of custody.
