A Story About Blue Sapphire
I Will Never Forget

This is a revelation of the spirit of a treasure hunter. I heard this story about the building of a road through the Sri Lankan jungle. They started with a solid gravel base. The gravel pit was several miles away. The trucks came; they dumped. The grader operator smoothed.

Things proceeded easily until, at noon, a truck driver dumped a load of gravel, got out of his truck for a cigarette and while leaning against his truck, noticed a flash of blue on the new road. He picked it up, and it was a sapphire crystal. A fine blue gem. Then he noticed another and then another. Other truck drivers noticed an excited man on his hands and knees picking stuff up. Even the grader operator climbed down and started picking up blue gems. In less than two hours, the grader operator and truck drivers were gone, and the Sri Lankan military guarded the road and secured the gem mine.

It’s now years later; we’re certain some of the blue sapphire gems we acquired during that period came from that road being built through the jungle. Stories like this come from countries where they mine gems. We still have sapphires from that period of time. Visit our website to learn more about blue sapphire and other gems of the world.

We have over 200 pieces of fine blue sapphire jewelry. Did some of our blue sapphires come from the Sri Lankian jungle road? Possibly. The quality was very fine… We have no way of absolutely knowing.
