Stop! These Rock Signs Could Lead to Gemstone Deposits

Описание: Gemstone discoveries are rarely accidents.
Long before a gem is ever recovered, the Earth leaves behind geological indicators that reveal where extreme temperature, pressure, and mineral transport once occurred.
In this field-based investigation, we examine ten specific rock types that geologists use to interpret deep-origin mineral systems — including mantle-derived rocks, metamorphic pathways, and late-stage magmatic environments capable of forming and preserving valuable gemstones.
You’ll learn how these rocks function not as the gemstones themselves, but as geological messengers pointing to the environments where gems can form, travel, and survive uplift to the surface.
This is not speculation or surface-level prospecting advice.
This is about reading geological processes through observable rock relationships, structural placement, and mineral behavior.
Understanding these indicators changes exploration from random searching to informed interpretation — the same method used in professional field geology and resource evaluation.
