Jewelry Making

I need a list of some of the precious stones used for jewelry making…it’s for a school project. In this “village” I’m the jewelry crafter and I need to know what kind of stones to use. I know diamond, jade, opal, amber, turquoise, and that’s about it. Oh, and I also need to know some of the medals used to make jewelry, such as gold and silver. It doesn’t matter what time period the particular stone began to be used in jewelry. Thanks!

Some stones:

Peridot
Onyx
Tourmaline
Moldavite
Amethyst
Ivory

Some medals:

Platinum
Copper
