Die Abteilung Geomaterial- und Edelsteinforschung beschäftigt sich mit den organischen (z.B. Perlen, Bernstein und Korallen) und anorganischen Varianten (z.B. Minerale, Imitationen und Synthesen) dieser außergewöhnlichen kristallinen und auch amorphen Materialien. Sie ist eine der dienstältesten Arbeitsgruppen (seit 1955) des Instituts für Geowissenschaften, einzigartig in Deutschland und mit einer Universitätsaußenstelle in Idar-Oberstein, dem „Institut für Edelsteinforschung, Idar-Oberstein“.

Ein Arbeitsschwerpunkt liegt auf der Entstehung der Edelsteine über den nachhaltigen Kleinbergbau bis zur Vermarktung dieser besonderen Form von Mineralen.

Ein weiterer Arbeitsbereich stellt die Manipulation der Farbe und Reinheit von Edelsteinen dar, um damit ein grundlegendes Verständnis über die Wechselwirkungen von Spurenelementen in geogenen und labor-gestützten Kristallstrukturen (Topologien) zu erlangen.

Ein fächerübergreifender Arbeitsschwerpunkt stellt die Edelsteine in den historischen und archäologischen Kontext, um hier z.B. Handelswege von Edelsteinen zu rekonstruieren und kulturelle Implikationen zu beleuchten.

  • Wechselwirkungen von Spurenelementen in gegebenen Topologien

  • Kooperation mit der:
  • Deutschen Gemmologischen Gesellschaft
  • Deutsche Stiftung Edelsteinforschung

  • Kooperation mit Prof. Dr. Bodil Holst, Head of Nanophysics Group University of Bergen, Norway : “Atomically resolved images of minerals using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)”.

  • High-pressure and high-temperature treatment of diamonds
  • PIs: T. Häger, R.Botcharnikov, S.Buhre
  • Funding: Idar-Oberstein, JGU
  • Students: PhD N.N.

  • Demantoid-Vorkommen: Genese, Farbursachen und Altersdatierung

  • Genese iranischer Danburite im Vergleich zu Danburit-Vorkommen weltweit
