Emerald Cut
How do you cut an emerald?
Please can you tell me how to cut an emerald, answer only if you know please, its for homework, chemistry.
Today, most emeralds are oiled. Oiling is the oldest and most widely used treatment and is done in most places in the world. It is a process used to enhance the clarity of emeralds and is relatively easy to identify by a gemologists. In practice, clear oil is applied to the emerald and seeps into the emerald through surface fractures. Oiling is generally not permanent and may need to be reaplied every few years. While colorless oil is considered an acceptable practice, the use of green oil is considered a deceptive practice.
Today, there are many sophisticated techniques with which to improve the clarity of emeralds. In addition, to oils and waxes, there are now clear resins called Opticon that is sometimes applied to an emerald that seals surface fractures. In contrast to oiling, Opticon is loner lasting. Opticon is considered an acceptable practice, except when green dye is used to enhance the emerald's color.
