| Abstract/Notes | New aquamarine deposits have been found around the world in recent years, and how to compare and distinguish aquamarines of different origin has become a significant problem. Aquamarines from Koktokay, Minas Gerais, and Namaqualand were collected for standard gemology tests, spectroscopy, and chemical analysis in this paper. The spectroscopy experiment included infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Chemical composition analysis comprises electron microprobe and laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). The results show that infrared absorption peaks related to [Fe2(OH)4] and NaH are found in Koktokay and Minas Gerais aquamarines, respectively. Compared with other two origins, Namaqualand aquamarine have strongest type II water Raman peak related to alkali metal content. Compared with aquamarines from other sources, aquamarines from Xinjiang and Minas Gerais are characterized by relatively high aluminum and low alkali contents in chemical composition, while Namaqualand aquamarine have a high scandium content. |
