What is the difference between Pink Sapphire and a Pink Ruby? (Ruby vs Pink Sapphire)

We see in this video the difference between pink sapphire and a pink ruby. Both are same material which is corundum, just different trace elements or different quantities of these trace elements make the different in appearance.
The dominant color for a pink sapphire has to be Pink, while the dominant color for ruby has to be Red.
Pink sapphires can be Reddish PINK, or Purplish PINK or Orangish pink (in some cases it will be classified as Padparadscha), the main color has to be PINK.
Ruby can be Pinkish RED, Purplish RED, Orangish RED, the main color has to be RED.
The higher the chromium the more red the stone will be. Chromium is a trace element in sapphires with gives the red color.
This video is not a replacement for laboratory grading but just to give you an idea of the different between them. Even 2 different laboratories can have separate results based on their grading criteria.

What about the chrominium element under ultra violet ?

[@vikasgandhi11]

The element Chromium in Rubies causes the Red color, The more chromium, more red the ruby is.
Chromium can also cause fluorescence in rubies. In some cases the iron along with other elements are also present, so the more the iron, the less fluorescence.
Some interesting articles to read regarding this

@@vikasgandhi11 We have antique Parsi jewellery that included pieces with light pink stones. I always thought they were pink sapphires but now I'm wondering if they might be another stone... possibly pink topaz?

[@vikasgandhi11]

@@TVY2013 I will not be able to tell from the photos if they are pink sapphires or rubies or pink topaz- its best to get them checked at a reputable gemlab. The video here is only for reference for difference between pink sapphire and a ruby (as they are the same stone, corundum).
There might be difference in opinion from different people on this- but that is a discussion that is never agreed upon yet in the gemstone industry. But hope this video helps.

@@vikasgandhi11 Yes, I understand that they would need to be analyzed by a professional. Thanks for your feedback and this youtube clip.
