Rubies are created well below the Earth’s surface under extreme heat and pressure. Oxygen and aluminum atoms, when compressed, create corundum. The presence of chromium gives the gem its red appearance.
Burma (Myanmar) produces the majority of the world’s rubies, and the finest in the world as well.
