Sapphire is a gemstone variety of the mineral corundum. The color of a sapphire is determined by the type and amount of trace elements present in the corundum. Iron, titanium, chromium, copper, or magnesium can give corundum a blue, yellow, purple, orange, or greenish color. Sapphires are hard stones (nine on the Mohs scale) and have high resistance to erosion by the natural sediments in which they are found. The value of natural sapphires depends on color, clarity, size, cut, and overall quality. Blue sapphires are usually evaluated based upon the purity of their primary hue, with purple, violet, and green being the most common secondary hues.
