Gemstones are precious or semi-precious minerals valued for their beauty and rarity, primarily used in jewelry and decorative applications. Beyond aesthetics, certain gemstones like diamonds and sapphires have industrial applications in cutting, grinding, and drilling due to their hardness. The gemstone industry significantly contributes to the global economy, supporting mining, trade, and craftsmanship while driving tourism in gem-rich regions.
