Aquamarine from Brazil
Aquamarine from Brazil: The beryl family
Aquamarine is a gemstone belonging to the beryl family, which also includes emerald, morganite and heliodor. It is composed of aluminum silicate and beryllium and owes its blue-green color to the presence of traces of iron in its crystalline structure.
Aquamarine is mainly found in Brazil, but it is also mined in other parts of the world, including Africa, Asia, Europe and South America. The finest aquamarine specimens are often very transparent, with no visible impurities or inclusions.
Aquamarine stones vary in size and shape, but emerald cut gemstones are the most popular. Aquamarine is a relatively hard stone, reaching 7.5-8 on the Mohs scale of hardness, making it durable and suitable for everyday use in jewelry.
In jewelry, aquamarine is often used in rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets.
