Abstract
In the Republic of the Union of Myanmar located in the central area is Mogok, and to the north Nam-Ya. These two areas out of just a handful of sources in the entire world are where some of the world's finest untreated rubies are produced. Mori's long history in Myanmar along with geological evidence can access and collect information of; Mogok mine reports, production of rubies and the expected status of production in the field and possible mining areas in the future. With professionals in the field and expertise in identification; we are aware of the present and future state of distribution, the all important ORIGIN (mine and country) and other matters such as Mozambique rubies being put into the mix. In addition, Mori's Myanmar (in subsidiary FC12) produces 20 ~ 30pc every day, cut and polished gemstones directly from the mining area.
Those rubies are put on a high-powered microscope and any inclusions are photographed and recorded into a database. Mori's has collected over 10 years of ruby inclusion photos. This data is used for; showing our customers the uniqueness and beauty of their rare treasure, for identification of that particular ruby in the future, and the information is sometimes shared with geological experts to further ruby studies. Although Mori`s Ruby is well known as ruby specialists we are not scientist. We need accurate information from gemologist in order to have complete confidence that we are providing our valued customers with the precious treasure that they expect they are spending the hard earned money on.
