According to the BBC, members of the Sri Lanka Gemological Society found a starlight sapphire weighing 1404.49 carats in the country's mines, worth at least $100 million (about 650 million yuan). The gem is now known as the "Astar Star", and according to its owner, the auction price can reach 175 million US dollars (about 1.14 billion yuan). The "Astar Star" was discovered in the "Gem City" Ratnapura in southern Sri Lanka. The gemstone weighs 1404.49 carats, which broke the world record of the previous 1395-carat gemstone and became the world's largest sapphire. Sri Lanka's gem industry is one of its key export pillars, contributing at least $103 million annually to Sri Lanka. The value of "Astar Star" is almost equal to the gemstone income of Sri Lanka for one year. Sapphire has always been popular, and in 2011, the engagement ring of Princess Kate of Britain included a sapphire from Sri Lanka in the 1970s. Starlight sapphire is known for its unique star logo at its center, and the name "Adam Star" is because its current people think that Adam came to Sri Lanka after leaving the Garden of Eden, living in Here Adam Peak, here is his second hometown.
