| 摘要 |
A method, system, and article of manufacture for marking and identifying gemstones, mined materials or objects, precious metals, or other similar valuable materials by encasing selected gemstones within removable casing. Identifiers may be included within the casing or actually branded directly onto mined objects. The identifier may be a chemical composition of the casing, a tag, logo, or similar mark, or an encoded identifier such as a bar-code, matrix, or data glyph. Information within the identifiers provide different types of information including information relating to the origin, identify, chain of possession, and owner of the gemstone. |
