This island is now known as St. John’s Island, located in the red sea. As per Egyptian mythology, the London blue topaz is referred to as the gem of the sun.

First, they are cleaned and exposed to gamma radiation. Depending upon the colour requirement, neutrons and electrons are used. For the London Blue Topaz, neutrons are preferred because neutrons bring out darker colour to the stone than electrons. First, these stones are placed in small nuclear reactors. To achieve the blue colour, the gemstones have to be exposed to neutrons. The gamma radiation acts as a purifier, mitigates the stone’s natural yellow or green colour and brings out the blue colour. The neutrons have good penetration, so they do not increase the temperature of the gemstone to a larger extent. To be on the safer side, the radiations take place slowly, not as to overheat the stone. Due to the uniform radiation, the colour is consistent throughout the stone. The colour also sometimes has a greenish hue if you look at the stone from certain angles. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLondon Blue Topaz is valued not just because of its beauty but also because of its symbolic significance and the multiple benefits you get after you start wearing it.
