This video is about Top 07 Most Expensive Gemstones In The World
01. Blue Diamond – $3.93 million per carat
Blue diamond is a type of diamond which exhibits all of the mineral ‘s inherent properties except with the stone’s additional element of blue colour. They are colored blue by trace amounts of boron which contaminate the structure of the crystalline lattice. Blue diamonds belong to a diamond subcategory called fancy color diamonds, the generic name for diamonds displaying intense colour. Blue diamonds range from Flawless to Included in grade as is the case with white diamonds.
The diamond, named “The Oppenheimer Blue” in honor of its previous owner, sold for a final price of $57.5 million. While the Pink Star diamond broke its record for most expensive jewel ever sold, the blue diamond holds the record for the most valuable price per carat at $3.93 million.
2. Jadeite – $3 million per carat
Jadeite is the purest, rarest, and most vivid gemstone in the Jade family. Jadeite is a pyroxene mineral with composition NaAlSi2O6. It is monoclinic. It has a Mohs hardness of about 6.5 to 7.0 depending on the composition. The mineral is dense, with a specific gravity of about 3.4.
The “Hutton-Midivani Necklace”, which consists of 27 large, top quality jadeite beads, did just that. After twenty minutes of intense bidding from eight potential buyers, the piece sold for $27.44 million to Cartier, the original designer of the necklace.
3. Pink Diamond – $1.19 million per carat
Pink diamonds are extremely rare. Only 0.0001% of the diamonds in existence are pink. It is a gemstone that would give beauty and harmony to the world. Just like white diamonds, pink diamonds can range from flawless to (heavily) included.The Pink Star is the only pink diamond in the world that is completely flawless.
In 2017, a stunning pink diamond weighing 59.60-carats was sold at a Sotheby’s auction in Hong Kong for a record-breaking $71.2 million. That’s $1.19 million per carat. Known as the “Pink Star” diamond, it’s the largest Fancy Vivid Pink diamond ever graded as Internally Flawless by the Gemological Institute of America.
4. Red Diamond – $1,000,000 per carat
Red Diamond is a diamond with the same mineral properties as colorless diamonds, displaying red color. They are commonly known as the world’s most expensive and rare color of diamonds, more so than pink diamonds or blue diamonds.
It is like pink diamonds, are highly debated as to the source of their color, but the gemological community most frequently attributes both colors to gliding atoms in the structure of the diamond as it undergoes tremendous pressure during its formation.
5. Emerald – $305,000 per carat
Emerald is a gemstone and a variety of the mineral beryl (Be3Al2(SiO3)6) colored green by trace amounts of chromium and sometimes vanadium. Beryl has a hardness of 7.5–8 on the Mohs scale. Most emeralds are highly included, so their toughness (resistance to breakage) is classified as generally poor.
At the Christie’s auction, it was purchased for $5.5 million, or $305,000 per carat. That made it the most expensive emerald per carat ever sold.
6. Taaffeite – $35,000 per carat
Taaffeite BeMgAl4O8 is a mineral named after its discoverer Richard Taaffe (1898–1967) who found the first sample, a cut and polished gem, in Dublin , Ireland, in October 1945. As such, this is the only gemstone that was first identified from a faceted stone. Most of the gem pieces had been misidentified as spinel, prior to Taaffe. It was only known in a few samples for many years after, and it is still one of the world’s rarest gemstone minerals.
Chemical and X-ray analysis confirmed taaffeite ‘s main constituents as beryllium, magnesium and aluminum in 1951, making taaffeite the first mineral to contain both beryllium and magnesium as essential components.
The confusion between spinel and taaffeite is understandable, as certain structural characteristics in both are identical. Anderson et al., classified taaffeite as a spinel-to-chrysoberyl intermediate mineral. Unlike spinel, taaffeite displays the double refraction property which allows distinguishing between these two minerals.
7. Grandidierite – $20,000 per carat
Grandidierite is a rare mineral originally discovered in southern Madagascar in 1902. The mineral was named to honor French explorer Alfred Grandidier (1836–1912) who studied Madagascar’s natural history.
The more iron (Fe) they contain, the more grandidierites appear bluer in colour. The Fe-analog (Fe, Mg) to grandidierite (Mg, Fe) is a recently discovered gemstone, blue ominelite.
Grandidierites display strong trichroic pleochroism. That means that depending on the viewing angle, they can show three different colors: dark blue-green, colorless (sometimes very light yellow), or dark green.
