26 days agoI think including non-synthetic gems is a copout, since it’s not the scarcity of the material itself, but the scarcity of the material when it’s given a particular laser engraving saying it’s natural and flawless.
Something about not being a fungible commodity, unlike tritium, where one gram of that particular chemical is interchangeable with any other of the same purity.
But there’s only 9 symbols, they just combine on top of each other instead of sequentially.
