TwoTin16, they're all called beryl. Green = emerald, red=rubies, etc.
baymax
well it's blue, and sapphires are blue,so logically the answer should be sapphire, right

It was in a star shape so it is very easy to guess
Callie Rose
MommaMel, sapphires, rubies, and a number of color variations are Corundum, the second hardest gem stones after diamonds. Emeralds are beryl along with aquamarine and other color variations, the third hardest after diamond (10), sapphire (9), then beryl (8) on the Mohns scale. not the same chemical make up.
