So how much is it worth? Without that info the article is useless.

Best‑case: large carat-sized pigeon‑blood rubies of highest quality like this one will fetch $100,000–$1Million+ per carat.

In other words, this 11,000 carat Mogok ruby from Mandalay, when cut and polished expertly, will sell for five to six billions of dollars ($5-6,000,000,000).

Million per carat? So many times more valuable than diamonds?

I found 2-50000k but that was cut, imagine alot of that stone would be lost in cutting
Still pretty wild
