Gemological Science International Opens in Jaipur
RAPAPORT. Gemological Science International (GSI) has launched a laboratory in Jaipur, aiming to tap into the Indian city’s rich heritage as a center for gemstones.
The new location will offer all of GSI’s core services, as well as a dedicated division specializing in the origins and identification of colored stones, the organization said Monday. The laboratory will feature advanced equipment and a team of professionals under the leadership of industry expert Meenu Vyas. It will also host educational programs.
“We are thrilled to continue GSI’s global expansion and open another laboratory in India,” said president and cofounder Debbie Azar. “The demand for GSI certification and origin testing for natural and lab-grown diamonds, as well as colored gemstones, continues to grow, and the Jaipur lab will help us meet that global need.”
Gemfields Holds First Ruby Sale Since 2019
RAPAPORT. Gemfields brought in $58.9 million at its first auction of rough rubies in more than a year, expressing optimism as operations at its Mozambique mine gradually resumed.
The miner held seven small sales of high-, medium- and commercial-quality goods between March 15 and April 8, noting on Thursday that its last ruby auction had been in December 2019. Viewings took place in Bangkok, Thailand, and in Jaipur, India, as well as in Dubai, followed by submissions of sealed bids through an online platform.
Some 52 companies placed offers, with Gemfields selling 89 or 95% of the 94 lots available. By carat weight, 47% of items found buyers, it said. The average price was an unusually high $171 per carat, reflecting the quality mix of the stones that sold.
RAPAPORT. Two pieces of green glass imitating valuable tourmalines have turned up at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) after manufacturers apparently used innovative techniques to make the shards look like real gemstones.
