PENDAYAGUNAAN MINERAL UNTUK MENJADI PERMATA
Abstract
Batu mulia atau permata adalah suatu mineral menarik yang ketika disayat dan dipoles dapat digunakan untuk perhiasan. Namun terdapat juga batuan-batuan dan bahan-bahan organik tertentu yang digunakan sebagai perhiasan sering dianggap sebagai permata. Sebagian besar permata yang berasal dari mineral ikutan dan mineral pembentuk batuan dikenal karena kekerasannya tetapi beberapa mineral lunak dapat juga didayagunakan karena kilapnya atau sifat-sifat fisik lainnya yang memiliki nilai-nilai estetika. Kelangkaan ditemukannya di alam merupakan karakteristik lainnya yang membuat permata menjadi sangat bernilai/berharga. Pemahaman tentang geologi, mula jadi dan keterdapatan sumber-sumber mineral permata seharusnya menjadi persyaratan; sehingga eksplorasi terhadap mineral tersebut di seluruh wilayah Indonesia dapat dilakukan secara tepat sasaran.
