preview SSEF Tutorial 1

previewAs a consequence of our extensive gemmological education program and the rising demand of our course participants, SSEF Swiss Gemmological Institute offers now the SSEF Tutorial 1 on CD-ROM based on our gemmological courses. The SSEF Tutorial 1 comprises of four presentations on the following contents:

  • a) How to separate natural diamonds from synthetic diamonds and imitations,
  • b) the formation of nacre and pearls,
  • c) fracture repair and foreign substances in rubies,
  • d) identification of enhancement in emeralds.

All four presentations are given in an English and a German version on CD-ROM, available in both, PC or Mac format. A French version is still in preparation. The presentations are running with Microsoft Powerpoint™. A freeware version of this program is on the CD-ROM, so that the presentations start automatically just by inserting the CD-ROM.

The presentations are based on extensive SSEF research. Spectacular macro- and microphotographs together with scientific background information are now at your disposal to upgrade your professional knowledge in gemmology on critical issues of the trade.
