Gemstones, Collector Stones, Minerals
There is no absolutely valid classification of all gemstones because the terms "rare", "precious" or "gemmy" are not clearly definable. For a useful system I subdivide the minerals into commonly known minerals, rarer minerals, very rare minerals, extremely rare minerals, relatively rare organic material, and collector stones with a low hardness (grey). Minerals with a Mohs hardness from 7 to 10 can be used in rings. I don't show minerals which are soluble in water. Information pages are marked in white. A rough price overview is marked in orange.
