∙ 14y agoThis is not a complete list, as I am only a fancier of rubies, not a gemologist, but I can point you to some of the major places. Burma ( Now Myanmar), Sri Lanka, Madagascar, India, and various places in Africa mine rubies. . Other places that have rubies are Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Kenya and Tanzania in Africa and Azad Kashmir,a state in Pakistan. The one place in the US I know for sure is North Carolina. Theoretically, there is a possibility of rubies anyplace there are sapphires, because a ruby is just the reddest of sapphires. I've seen some dark pink sapphires that will pass for a lesser quality ruby. Happy Hunting. The dig in North Carolina is open to the public for a daily fee. There is a diamond dig in Arkansas that operates that way as well.

∙ 8y agoFor centuries Burma was the world's main source for rubies and has produced some of the finest rubies ever mined, but over the years, very few fine rubies have been found. Rubies have historically been mined in Thailand, Cambodia, Burma, India, Afghanistan, Australia, Namibia, Colombia, Japan, Scotland, Brazil and in Pakistan. The best stone displays an intense, rich crimson without being too light or too dark.
