Pink to red spinel is a gemstone that comes in a range of colors, from light pastel to deep rose:
Color
The color of pink spinel can vary depending on the stone's origin, with spinels from Sri Lanka tending to be lighter, and those from Burma tending to be richer. The color can also be affected by lighting and the presence of other minerals in the stone.
Crystal shape
Spinel is singly refractive and belongs to the cubic crystal system, with an octahedral crystal shape.
Fluorescence
Some pink to red spinels, such as the Mahenge spinel from Tanzania and the "Jedi" spinel from Burma, are known to be highly fluorescent.
Origin
Most pink to red spinel comes from moderate- to high-grade metamorphic rocks. Some of the finest spinels come from Burma, which is known for its rich red and pink hues.
Inclusions
Common mineral inclusions in spinels from Myanmar, Vietnam, and Tanzania include apatite crystals and graphite platelets.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
