FoundationPlanned program

Introduction to Modern Gemology

Foundational concepts including crystal systems, optical properties, commonly encountered gem species, and introductory observation methods. Designed for jewellers, students, and collectors entering the discipline.

Mineralogical basis
Refractive index & birefringence
Loupe & microscope observation
Gem species awareness

Applied topicsPlanned program

Applied Gemological Observation

Practical observation skills using magnification, light behaviour, and photomicrography. The focus is on structured visual examination, inclusion study, and awareness of treatment indicators — not on laboratory certification or instrumental analysis.

Microscopy & photomicrography
Inclusion study
Treatment awareness
Observation notes to EGP documentation practice

Advanced topicsPlanned program

Origin Awareness & Synthetic Recognition

Study of geographic origin as a research topic, distinguishing features of natural and synthetic materials, and the limits of non-laboratory observation. Does not include trace-element analysis, advanced spectrometry, or definitive origin authentication.

Origin as a field of study
Growth structures & visual indicators
Synthetic material awareness
Limits of remote and non-laboratory assessment
