Majority of Gemstones are treated and are mostly consumed for commercial grade Jewelry.
In Garuda Purana, Sri Sut Ji Goswami says in the Chapter 72, The Blue Sapphire subjected to heat or burning to improve color and clarity should never be used by anyone as illness and misfortune will fall on that individual who uses a heated and a burned gem.
