Sapphire, for anyone reading this who doesn't know, is the gemstone variety of corundum (Al2O3). Corundum is found in syenite (A granite-like igneous rock that contains little or no quartz), some pegmatites (igneous rocks with large crystals made of quartz, feldspar, and often mica), and in "high-grade metamorphic rocks."

What else can I help you with?
Why are fossils not found in other kinds of rock except sedimentary rock?
Sedimentary rock is when a fossil is found inside it.
Are sapphires found in Michigan?
Yes, sapphires can be found in Michigan, particularly in the Upper Peninsula. While they are not abundant, some amateur rockhounds have reported finding small sapphires in certain locations, especially in gravel beds and river sediments. Most of the sapphires found in Michigan are not of gem quality but can still be interesting for collectors.
Can you find sapphires in Australia or the US?
Yes, sapphires can be found in both Australia and the US. In Australia, sapphires are commonly found in the New South Wales region, particularly around the New England area. In the US, sapphires are found in Montana, particularly near the Yogo Gulch region.
What type of rock is mainly found in the ring of fire?
Mostly Igneous rock, but I am sure there are other kinds of rock as well. Maybe you can look further into it?
Where is sapphire fond in the rock cycle?
Sapphire is found in the rock cycle primarily within metamorphic rocks, particularly in aluminum-rich metamorphic environments like schists. It can also form in igneous rocks, specifically in alkali basalt and syenite. Additionally, sapphires can be found in sedimentary deposits as a result of weathering and erosion of these source rocks, where they accumulate in riverbeds or alluvial deposits. Thus, sapphires can be traced through various stages of the rock cycle, from formation in high-pressure environments to eventual sedimentary distribution.
