Crushed Ruby (Corundum) Chips, Pea-Sized Gravel (2mm-4mm) for Woodworking Inlay, Resin Art, Embellishments or Orgone Pyramids, Closeout Deal
Our "Closeout Corner" consists of leftover material from our regular stock that has some imperfections. This is due to natural factors such as: color variations, the presence of host rock, the presence of other auxiliary minerals, and/or staining due to natural weathering processes. Closeout crushed material is offered at a discount price and is a great option for makers who prefer a more rustic look with natural variation.
***Closeout deals are not a part of our regular stock. These deals are limited in quantity - while supplies last.**
ABOUT RUBY
Ruby, a variety of corundum, is one of the hardest natural minerals with a Mohs hardness of 9. While corundum occurs in a range of colors, the two most recognized forms are ruby and sapphire. The distinction comes from trace elements—ruby contains chromium, which gives it its signature red to reddish-purple color.
This particular batch of closeout ruby features an even mix of reddish-purple and red hues with minor amounts of oxides, quartz, and host rock.
Ruby is also the birthstone for July, making it a great choice for custom birthstone pieces or meaningful additions to your projects.
