Corundum has some electrical uses, and non gem quality material, such as emery, is extensively used as an abrasive because of its high hardness.
Corundum.
The hardEST is a diamond, and some other hard ones are corundum and topaz. If you look up Moh's hardness scale, it will show you some.
Pure corundum is clear in color.
Corundum is in the trigonal crystal system.
Diamond is the hardest mineral and is the only one that can scratch corundum. but in my opinion corundum will scratch corundum any mineral of the same hardness will scratch the other !

Corundum can be used for sandpaper,jewelry,grinding wheels,etc.
The value of the mineral corundum will vary according to its appearance. Gem quality corundum is highly valued. Non gem quality corundum has many industrial uses and is much less highly valued.
Ruby is the common name for the reddish variety of the mineral corundum. Blue corundum is called sapphire.

Corundum is very hard. It serves as the index mineral with a hardness of nine on the Mohs Hardness Scale. It is the third hardest mineral known, with diamond and moissanite being the only minerals with a greater hardness. This high hardness makes corundum especially useful as an abrasive. Crushed corundum is screened to produce uniformly-sized grits and powders. These are used as grinding media and used to manufacture polishing compounds, sand papers, grinding wheels and cutting tools. The costs of manufacturing abrasives have been declining through innovation. Synthetic corundum is increasingly being used as an abrasive instead of natural corundum.
