Research Results

Here at CGL we are involved in a wide range of gemology research and we continually offer this information through CGL News.
In addition, CGL is actively involved in many academic organizations in Japan and around the world so that we are able to gather the latest information and exchange information regarding gemology research.
CGL has participated academic conferences and published scientific publications as below.
