Image description

Interested bidders look at a huge 850-carat uncut blue sapphire, that went on auction in the southern Sri Lankan town of Ratnapura July 25. The stone however, remained unsold as the owner said the bids were too low. Local newspapers have speculated the selling price could be as high as one million US dollars. AL/JIR/KM
