Inclusions serve as the "fingerprint" of the Mozambican origin, allowing gemmologists to distinguish these stones from synthetic counterparts or other geographic sources.
Often contain rounded crystals of amphibole, mica (phlogopite/biotite), and occasionally orange-red rutile or apatite. Gemmological Profile Mozambican Ruby
