Precious Stones, Minerals and Metals

These are usually or can also be referred to as Gemstones. They are stones who were formed out of molten magma and have lived through a considerably longer of years. There are approximately 300 types of gemstones but the most precious of them are the Diamond, Ruby, Emerald and Sapphire. These stones are unique and precious as they are been regarded for their Value, Beauty and Richness. Precious stones remain precious because they are translucent with fine color in their purest forms except for the colorless Diamonds. The gemologist identifies this stone through there chemical composition because most stones are crystal by nature. The value of precious stones are enhanced through the cutting and refining process they undergo.

We provide a wide range of minerals and metals to serve your needs. Minerals are solid, naturally occurring inorganic substances that can be found in earth’s crust. Metals are elementary substances such as gold, silver and copper that are crystalline when solid and naturally occurring in minerals. They often have the qualities of good conductors of electricity and heat. These minerals and metals are used for industrial and commercial purposes. Their importance in the Construction, technological, jewelry and chemical industry cannot be underestimated due to the value they add to humanity.
