Origin of Vedic Gemstone Most gemstones are mineral crystals and can be formed in various ways. Some crystallize from molten magma and gases of the earth's interior, and some from volcanic lava steams that reach the earth's surface. As it slowly cools, it forms what is known as igneous rocks. Other minerals crystallize naturally from hydrous solutions or grow with the help of organisms. This is known as sedimentary rocks.
