<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bdigger, post: 615445, member: 157&quot;]Those Africa rubies are about the same as North Carolina Rubies.....the green is probably zoisite (sp?) matrix. Those are 6 sided crystal which could cab into star rubies......but still does&nbsp; not match the color of the other stones in the necklace. Holly is probably right that they are Corundum , suitable for abrasives. Corundums are Rubies and sapphires. Red Corundum is called Ruby....All other colors are called Sapphire.</p><p>here is a NC star &quot;ruby&quot;.</p><p>Should probably be properly called a sapphire.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]180480[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
