3 thoughts on “What gemstone produced in Taiwan”

  1. Taiwan's Blue Chalsced on Taiwan.
    Introduction:
    The gem produced by the blue blue treasure produced in the eastern part of Taiwan. In fact, it is not the sapped sapphire of the Gangyu family. And the formation of sky blue is the highest price of gemstones produced in Taiwan.
    If formation reasons:
    Tramids are generally produced in the coastal mountains on the east coast, from Fengbin Township, Hualien County in the north, Dalai Town in Taitung County in the south, and crossing flowers and East East County. The formation is between China and Singapore (about 7 million to 26 million years). Between the cracks of the fault and the gravel of the Anshan rock, then the beautiful colors are precipitated.
    The rough stones are often mixed with silicon malachite, and contain a small amount of green mud stone, natural copper, iron oxide and water. About 0.01%~ 0.02%, the producing state of its gemstone is mostly a dovetail structure. The veins are often extended by about 10m, the width ranges from about 5 ~ 10cm, and the local width can reach 30cm.
    The expansion information:
    The relevant information:
    Thenin agate has been mining since the Japanese rule. Although there are still several in the blue agate mining area in the mining, the scale is small. After the typhoon is heavy, there will still be treasure hunting people in Qili Creek in the mountains and streams, hoping to pick up treasures in the gravel.
    A blue agate produced in the coastal mountains is best in Qili Creek area. Blue agate is bright blue or blue -green because it contains a small amount of copper. It is often found in the oxidation zone of the bronze ore, and is produced in the United States or Chile. The blue agate is produced in the coast of Taiwan. The color is the most beautiful, the quality is the best, and the market is the highest. Unfortunately, the mine has gradually exhausted.

  2. The most famous gemstone in Taiwan is as follows:
    1. [Blue Chalsceda]
    The main components of Blue Chalsced are silicon dioxide (SIO2), Moh's hardness is 7, and the proportion is 2.5 ~ 2.6. Because it contains silicon peacocks (), the color is light blue, dark blue, or yellow -green in the blue, elegant color and high degree of transparency. The highest value among gem.

    2. [Taiwan Jade]
    This jade belongs to the horn flashes, also known as "flashes of jade". "Toyota Yu". Because it is produced in Taiwan, the name of the study is "Taiwan Rate Jade", which is generally collectively referred to as "Taiwan Jade".
    This Jade is produced in the east to contact a deteriorating snake -like rock. The color is emerald, grass green, dark green, yellow -green or pale yellow gray, with a glass luster transparent to opaque. Under the microscope, it is observed from a fine -fiber or fine fluffy -like flaspace, and it is mixed with a small amount of chromium iron ore, sculpture, green mud stone, and magnetite to form black spots or stripes. Hardness is 6 ~ 6.5, and the proportion is 2.9 ~ 3.1.
    It Taiwan jade has historical and cultural meaning, because according to expert research, "Collected in Museums in Southeast Asian countries, and the 144 ancient jade between the age of 3,000 and 500 AD by the experts was identified. The 116 ancient jade was confirmed that all of them were Toyota from Taiwan. 』

    . [Taiwan Cat Eye Jade]
    First of all, it must be emphasized that this is not a variety of cat -eye stones (cat eye stone refers to the gold emerald in the jewelry industry, the hardness of the cat's eye effect, hardness, hardness, hardness 8.5, and the real cat -eye stones are very valuable.) Taiwan does not produce cat eye stones.
    The cat -eye jade in Taiwan refers to a jade with a cat -eye phenomenon of Taiwan jade (Taiwan's flaspy jade is divided into three types: ordinary glittering jade, cat eye glittering jade, and wax light flashes). It is very rare and precious. Taiwan's cat -eye jade is glossy and has a long fiber -shaped. Observations for each fiber under the polarized microscope are at least 2 cm, and the field observation can even be seen 100 cm long. Its hardness is as high as 7.1, which is higher than the hardness of ordinary jadeite. It is essentially jade -eye jade. There is only production in Taiwan in the world.

    4. [Penghu Wenshi] --- Reprinted from the "Shiwen Shi Shi Exhibition Hall"
    The main geology of Penghu is volcanic lava --- Xuanwu rock, the geological structure will be mixed with some weathered soils Or sedimentary rock formations, and the rich calcium carbonate and carbonate minerals contained in the sedimentary rock formation are one of the most important minerals of Penghu's stone.
    The formation of Penghu's text stones has different changes due to the different geological conditions. Most of the text and stone containing iron oxide ingredients show red or brownish yellow; Green mud stones are green; if you use calcium carbonate as the main ingredient, it presents white to pale yellow color; those with silicon oxide are in a jade crystal. The reason why Penghu's text stones have colorful patterns and various concentric round lines.
    Basically, Penghu's text and stone should be classified as "half -gem", which is suitable for carving into artworks. It is a world -renowned natural mineral.

    "In order to protect the above precious natural resources, all of them have stopped mining. "

  3. Taiwan jade

    The know Taiwan's jade

    What is jade?

    It in minerals, only two types of minerals are called jade, one is flaspy jade, and the other is Huiyu.

    1. Huiyu: Burmese's value of emerald is the most well -known Huiyu. Under the polarized microscope, it is obviously a crystalline structure.

    2. Shining jade: The flashes are the most representative of Taiwan's jade. The texture is delicate and tough. It is the most tough mineral in the world. Its fiber -like characteristics can be seen from the polarized microscope. Small spots with black spots are also the appearance characteristics of the flashes of jade. If there is no black spot and a translucent green green, it is the best of the jade.

    On how to form?

    1. Today, the Hualien area was still a piece of ocean 100 million years ago. At that time, some deep -sea sediments were accumulated on the ocean crust. About 60 million years ago, the first mountain campaign in Taiwan had squeezed a small part of the ocean crust and was mixed in the deep sea sediment.

    2. The force of the squeezing of the mountain movement generates high temperature and pressure. The crushing block of the ocean crust will become "snake -patterned rocks" and deteriorate the deep sea sediment into a "black film rock".

    3. About 6 million years ago, the second mountain movement in Taiwan had a second deterioration of these stones. Snake -patterned rocks and black sliced ​​rocks were gradually squeezed out of the sea, and finally became part of the Central Mountains.

    4. Snake rocks in the Toyota area provide magnesium, black sliced ​​rocks provide silicate, and calcium elements in the surrounding environment can form a wealth of Taiwan's flavoring veins!
