GRS Gemresearch Documentary: Heat treatment of spinel in Mogok, Burma (Myanmar) 2015

In order to understand the potential for colour enhancement of spinels by heat-treatment, we have performed heat-treatment experiments. For this purpose, we have acquired a heat-treatment furnace in Mogok and used the local heat-treatment techniques available in the Mogok area
