Known as the 'Valley of Rubies', Mogok is the world's most celebrated source of fine rubies, producing the coveted pigeon blood red stones that command the highest prices at auction. The alluvial deposits in this remote highland valley have also yielded exceptional sapphires, spinels, and moonstones for centuries. Mogok rubies are distinguished by their intense fluorescence and silk inclusions that create a velvety glow unique to this locality.
