Rubies can be found on almost any continent and are mined to a greater or lesser degree where ever they are found. The most exciting news has been the finds uncovered by the retreating ice shelf in Greenland but, the largest number and highest quality rubies come from mines in Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Kenya, and Thailand.

Myanmar, formerly know as Burma, has been know for its high grade rubies for many hundred years.
