Ruby is the red variety of the mineral corundum, which is in the same family as sapphire.
It’s of the hardest minerals on earth, which makes it great to be set as a diamond ring.
Its hardness is 2nd only to diamond with a mohs number of 9. Pure corundum is colorless; aluminum oxide and Chrome give ruby its color.

Rubies over 3 carats that have no inclusions are quite rare and so fetch very high prices at auctions.
