Gem Identification

Gem Identification

Gem Identification is the scientific process of determining the identity and authenticity of a gemstone using a combination of visual inspection, instrumental analysis, and gemological testing. It helps distinguish between natural, synthetic, and treated stones, and also identifies imitations or fakes.

Why Gem Identification Is Important

1. To verify authenticity of gems in jewelry
2. To detect treatments or enhancements
3. To distinguish natural from lab-created stones
4. For valuation, certification, and trading
5. To avoid fraud or misrepresentation
