    These gems are always taken from the territory of third-world countries in Africa and Asia, only to be sold off in first world countries for staggering amounts of money. The people whose land was dug up to find these gems, and the person whose hands dug it out of the ground, aren't seeing any of these millions.

    If I was the one who found this ruby.I would hide it and sell it in the black market and get at least 6 mil.

    I personally don't see the appeal of these expensive gem stones. I wouldn't even spent £10 on one. A computer or car would benefit my life by a considerable margin. A small stone wouldn't give me any more joy outside of selling one at a high price.

    Indians: Please Saaar, return to us the Kohinoor diamond which you stole from us
    Sunak: We also took Ladakh and South Tibet, would you return them to China?
    Indians: But Saaar, South Tibet and Ladakh belong to India since ancient times. We will never return them, NEVER
    Sunak: Very well then, likewise we shall keep the diamond. Tataaaa👋

    Naming it after the mining company that found it kinda diminishes its brilliance in my opinion 😐

    Clearly the wumao who complained about this auction, refused to understand how mining works. He will be silent if the mining company is a motherland company mining in Mozambique and the auction is held in HK, but since it's not a motherland company and auction isn't done in HK, he pretends to be concerned about "third world Asian and African countries". I guess he'll be surprised if he learns that some motherland mining companies also do their mining business in third world African and Asian countries, with exact same methods and even regulations.

    But these are the rubies of this mortal world, and the rubies of the Hereafter in Paradise are more valuable than the rubies of this world, because the life of this world is a mortal life, so if one becomes the owner of the rubies of the whole world, we should think for the Hereafter Which will be eternal life forever. And the ruby ​​of Paradise will be only for those who obey the commands of Allah and not for disobedient people, and those they are disobedient to Allah will be deprived of it.

    Found in Mozambique, which is a country in Africa. This world would be broke without the continent of Africa. FYI....The mining company Fura is owned by an Indian man name Devi Shetty. How much money did he pay to the Black people (more than likely children) in Mozambique who worked in those dangerous mines to find this precious stone?? 🤔
