Mondian, a truck driver, told reporters today that he bought a bunch of clams at the seafood market stall in Linchaban Wharf, Li Wu Province, in the spring because his wife nagged for seafood, and he was going home for a barbecue. His son liked the only yellow conch in this pile of shells, so he spent an extra 50 baht to take it away.
As a result, my son found a hard yellow pearl ball when he cut 50 baht conch meat! Meng Tian immediately realized his luck and quickly searched the Internet to confirm that he really won the grand prize and got the legendary Dragon Ball. He immediately went to the local police station to register and then sent it to a professional institution for identification. It was identified as a natural Merlot pearl, namely Dragon Ball, by the National Gem and Jewellery Society of Thailand, and issued an identification certificate.

1. Merlot pearl, also known as "dragon ball" or "flame ball", is round and comes from conch body. Because it can't be cultivated artificially, each one is a natural gem, and orange is the rarest.
2. Merlot beads are similar in composition to most shellfish, including calcite and aragonite microcrystals. They have the bright appearance of ceramics, flame pattern structure, irregular shape, oval and egg shape, and the round ones are usually of higher value.
3. Rare and precious Merlot beads are extremely difficult to produce. The probability of finding them from conch is one in a thousand, and the probability of fully mining them to large size and good quality is even lower.
