I would love some more cause of color episodes! It's always interesting to see the unique ways that a single element can produce color in gems and minerals.
I never knew that garnets can be magnetic! Very cool
In the 90's we sold peridot from Afghanistan that was an amazing green. I always wondered if it had Chromium. When I had a retail store I would say to lingering customers, " If you stay much longer I will have to give you the Chromium lecture." they always asked what that was and stayed to hear how Chromium could turn Emeralds green but Rubies red.......
Always love the close up at the end
I seriously love this channel if I gotta be honest cause like I'd be just scrolling and they would be talking about how an iron affects some lil air pocket and all of a sudden it's a pretty rock.
I hope I'm making sense English isnt my first language
Yes please, to more 'cause of colour' episodes. Something I love about peridot is that it can also be found in some meteorites, so it can be extraterrestrial in origin.
Learned a lot from this video! Please keep the "Causes of Color" episodes coming!
Yes please do more of these kind of episodes. It's so interesting seeing how one element can morph into so many different colors.
I love that Aquamarine!
Neat aqua trapiche!
Very cool. I really really enjoy all your videos...so whatever you post, I will watch. Cool trick- sorting the parcel with the magnet. Great job- thanks.
It would be really interesting to learn about more newly discovered or unusual stones used for jewelry like yttrium (lavender) fluorite and tourmalated quartz. Speaking of, do any stones have pure(ish) iron inclusions? TY
I really like your videos, I learn so much every time even tho I already have quite a lot of knowledge! One thing I would love a video about is my favorite gemstone, Tsavorite!
It's one of our faves too! Be sure to watch this one: th-cam.com/video/iOXry9Am4eU/w-d-xo.html
We have a lot of iron out here. I find a lot of gemstones. I’m not sure what all of them are still trying to learn. Thanks for all your information.
I may have been the one who specifically requested a video about iron based gemstones😃 so thank you for this! So the reason I asked is because iron allegedly gives very strong spiritual protection. I make protective amulets and jewelry for folks who do Paranormal Investigation. Black tourmaline (schorl) is one of the most popular stones to use so it's high iron content makes sense. Learning about these stones gives me more tools to work with!
💥👻💥
That's really interesting!
Super cool!!!! ❤
Great video. Loved it. Thanks for sharing.
i love how knowledgable yall are, when i was a kid, there used to be some big thing where it was common for people to think/feel about girls or jewelers, etc like, "oh yea girls just like jewelery, they're soo girly and dont do the whole science things like Us Guys, they just like that girly stuff" then you got chicka over here talkin bout manganese, chromium 2, ions and other shit lol.. love it
Another great episode! You guys are great!
Just a simple request... when showing each piece during the "closer look" towards the end of each video, would it be possible to put the name of each piece on the screen while the piece is showing? It's helpful to see the piece as well as the name of each piece together. Especiailly for those of us that are new and still learning.
Thank you.
You guys are geeks in a fun way😁💕😍
Those garnets!!!
Holly cow! Bat woman I would love that tourmaline as well. That beauty is vibrating so strong I still feel it. Through this iPad ! WOW
I found some old drill cores in Northern Ontario Canada here that had an abundance of peridot throughout the core sample. I got around a handful of nice stones from a piece 4 or 5 inches long. Apparently they only wanted diamonds or gold. Or they simply didn't know the potential value of their discovery.
Now I know that I'm a fan of gemstones colored by iron! 🤭
yay the guy is in this one!
Wow that hematite druzy 😍 and that epidote looks very much like what I've seen from the Calumet mine here in Colorado! Would love to know where that specimen came from!
Hi would you be able to do a video about shattuckite,chrysocolla ,azurite and malachite?When I look to buy them they seem to sometimes grow together and it’s confusing what I’m buying.Thank you from the uk xxx
Wow... so i can use magnet on some gemstone now!!!???
Awsome episode!!!!
Thanks!
Another fascinating video with information shared in a 'matter of fact' manner, an excellent method to impart knowledge without appearing doctoral. Brilliant.
Thank you ☺️
Great to see you together after suck a kong time. 👍👍
I bought terp balls 6mm spheres. Named diamondium from futurama. I suspect they are a classic moissanite. Iron and nitrogen impurities make them change colours like a chameleon diamond. Boron nitrate possibly?
What do you call a light green beryl? I have emeralds, heliodore, aquamarine and Morgan items. I have some beryl that is a pale green set beside morganite in a ring. What would you call it? It isn't dark enough to be emeralds and it is too green to be aquamarine.
If iron is the coloring impurity without vanadium or chromium, then it should be called "green beryl".
Saya sangat suka cara ngeriviewnya..salam 1 Hobie dari Indonesia
Hey guys blessings
What are the main subjects that you both studied to know and understand the chemical, etc of gemstones? I want to learn and understand the composition of different gemstones.
Both Robert and Rebecca took Gem-A's Foundation course, which covers a wide range of gemological topics. In addition, Rebecca completed Gem-A's Diploma course, and also received a Graduate Gemologist degree from GIA. In addition to this, there is a plethora of books and materials available online. We tried to give a brief overview in this video: th-cam.com/video/NDywGLdRhuM/w-d-xo.html
i love a man that recite chemical structures
The bottom of my toilet tank lid is a history of minerals I have NOT known, but collected. LOL (streak testing is easier than blow pipe) Speaking of new discoveries (he shills) VR Resources found a NEW possible multiple pipe diamond field in Canada inbetween their several rare earth metals discoveries besides the gold, copper, molybdenum and silver in Nevada. Not Financial Advice, stock market tip and we know how those go. Richer people can afford to buy their choices in jewellery instead of leaving it in a bank.
i have a meteor stone, how can i sell it
As gemas tem propriedades magnéticas e elétricas e eletrônicas . A Nova Jerusalém vai flutuar no espaço e vai ter propriedades elétricas, magnéticas e eletrônicas além de funções fotonicas , fitossanitarias , militares, e luminosas e artísticas. A obra será o centro do mundo. A capital sagrada.
yal want clout? I suggest a video EXCLUSIVELY about HTA. especially on reddit people go nuts hating on it. “It’s not citrine it’s not citrine it’s not citrine it’s burned baked toasted ew gross disgusting”. please lol
apart from the important id lesson (hta=\=citrine=smokey quartz or something), i basically want you lovely experts to say your thoughts.
I know for a fact most citrine in expensive jewelry ends up being either HTA or treated quartz just the same. no? these weird judgements towards different colors of quartz is so weird to me and I respect yals opinion so much💕

Does iron color smoky quartz?
No. It’s a combination of aluminum impurities and irradiation.
What about amethyst hematite inclusion
Is it possible for beryl to be in a 50lb cluster …😅 I got this thing that I’ve been stumped on and I’ve done tons of tests and it’s either Danburite or beryl
So what are some of easiest and the best ways to identify a gemstone? A spectroscope?
A spectroscope is a very handy tool, but only certain gems have a diagnostic spectrum, whereas a polariscope will work on a broader range of stones, though will usually only tell you whether or not it is isotropic. Most gemologists we’ve spoken with emphasize the importance of close observation with a 10x loupe. That can really narrow down the possibilities of what you are looking at and help you determine which tests are the best next step.
The colour of Emerald is caused by trace amounts of a chromophore such as trivalent chromium or trivalent vanadium. Source Mindat. Emeralds color isn't caused by iron, those would be considered just Green Beryl
You're correct, a beryl colored green solely by iron would not be considered an emerald, but a green beryl. However, emeralds often have traces of iron affecting their color along with the vanadium and/or chromium.
Manganese please!
I thought iron in ionic form wouldn't be absorbed by a magnet.
I actually tested it on iron chloride
There's a beach in Hawaii that's made up of peridot.
Pretties
Flapjack
Welcome!
Epidote is peridot?
Gemstones app doesn’t show that they are the same. I’m confused. 🤷🏼♀️
No, epidote is not peridot.
they are different, with different compositions and forms
Why did they call it epidote in one moment and then called it peridot in the next?
@@tammyphillips6299 I was confused at that moment, as well. But I think they just had two different stones in front of them (the small faceted peridot and the large epidote mineral specimen) and they kind of flicked quickly between the two when talking. I was wondering if the two stones are related in some way since the colour is so similar.
i vote chromium for next episode
Wow. Good job
