Colombian emerald trade : ウィキペディア英語版 | Colombian emerald trade Colombia, located in the region of South America, is the country that mines and produces the most emeralds for the global market. Colombia accounts for nearly 60% of the world’s emerald market. The regions in Colombia where most of the emerald mining takes place are Boyacá and Cundinamarca, both found on the eastern ridge of the Andes Mountains that runs north-south throughout the entire country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Green Spell of Colombian Emeralds )〕 The Colombian emerald company CiCeRi LLC, based out of Miami, Florida, explains on their webpage that: “Geologically speaking, Colombian emeralds are the purest because the emerald deposits are the only ones on earth found in sedimentary host rock rather than igneous rock.”〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Emerald: the Queen of the Gems )〕 Although the Colombian emerald trade has a rich history that dates as far back as the Spanish colonial period, the increase in worldwide demand for this precious stone in the last forty years has caused prices for emeralds to double in price. Today, the Colombian emerald trade in engrained at the center of Colombia’s civil conflict that has plagued the country for the last sixty years. == References ==
