Yellow sapphire should be clear to the eye and of a lemony yellow to golden yellow color. It is commonly heat treated to make it more saleable to the public, although many people have never seen nor heard of one. If heated it gets a darker orange gold or brownish yellow color and this material is useless, for its inherent potencies have been destroyed in the heating process. Occasionally a very few untreated yellow sapphires are found in a much more intense, extremely deep color that can almost look treated, but an expert gemologist can tell the difference. To differentiate yellow sapphire from other stones their specific gravity will have to be measured.

It is best set in rings or pendants of yellow gold and, if in a ring, is best worn on the forefinger (next to the thumb). It may also be worn on the ring finger (next to the smallest finger).There are several sources of yellow sapphires including Sri Lanka, Thailand, Cambodia, Burma, Australia and Africa ,but the only place that seems to produce enough natural (unheated) material consistently is Sri Lanka. Yellow topaz or Citrine quartz may also be substituted for yellow sapphire, although the potency is less. The important thing is to take advantage of the powers of gems according to your own means. If worn properly ,with faith and determination, achievements of desired effects will come about quickly.
