“…On the other hand, blue sapphires from the southern part of the Naxos and Ikaria Islands (both occurring in fissures within metabauxites hosted in marbles) display atypical magmatic signatures, indicating a likely hydrothermal origin. In these four papers [13][14][15][16], it is evident that some ratios used to separate gem corundum from different geological environments (e.g., Ga/Mg ratio [17]) should be applied with caution. They possibly need revision using solely data obtained from gem-quality samples, in addition, the data should be grouped carefully according to colour.…”
