New Research Findings Will Rock Your World!
“When times get tough, the tough get going …” … and the toughest are headed to AGA’s Tucson Conference February 4th!
In this economy - when every dollar counts - you can’t afford to miss this conference!
•Find out what AGA’s Lighting Task Force has discovered through its latest high-tech research project: over-grading the color of blue-fluorescent diamonds really is a serious problem. Come get the full story, and learn how your own light source—or diamond source—may be taking money out of your pocket. Don’t just witness it, become part of AGA’s history-making work! •Be among the first to learn about ground-breaking new research that has opened the door to distinguishing one of nature’s rarest and most beautiful gems—naturally blue tanzanite—from the heat-treated! The latest findings, presented for the very first time at this conference, will give you a rare advantage in the marketplace! •Corundum is the top selling gemstone in the market. Base your buying or identification decisions on what you know, not on what you’re told. Learn the latest techniques for identification of heated corundum – in all its forms – used by two of Europe’s most esteemed gemologists, in this first presentation to the AGA. •Delve more deeply into the increasingly complex world of beryl: natural and synthetic. We have all seen synthetic emerald but what about bixbite and other varieties? Beryl is an important gem family, but developments in this species have been overshadowed by treatments and synthetics in corundum and diamond. Find out what’s really out there! •Gain more confidence in using classic gemological techniques in today’s high-tech world.
The Conference concludes with the Annual Dinner-Dance and Presentation of the Antonio Bonanno Award For Excellence in Gemology. Come join friends and colleagues, network with industry leaders, and celebrate with this year’s Bonanno award-winner, Christopher (Chris) Smith!
