*SHE FINNALY GOT TO GO SOMEWHERE*
I would love to see the footage, if there is any, of inside the mine! You should do a series on just mines. That would be cool!
Love the videos! keep 'em coming!!
I hope you saw that there was one. :)
i wish these videos were more popular, theyre just so good
Such a cool video! Loved that you chose to unbox the specimens at the mine they were mined from as well as hearing about the history and geology at this mine. And those two specimens from Bryan's own collection were stunning!!
Wow! Is purer Rhodochrosite that bright red?! I've only ever seem light pink ones! I love the banded patterns in the cabochons I'm used to seeing, but the crystal is really beautiful too. Love that you actually went to the mine to talk about it!
I have a deep red piece and now i know where it most likely came from.
Beautiful! Sweet Home Rhodo is one of my favorites! I'm sure many mineral collectors were cringing watching the handling of those specimens. Some of the finest pieces in the world!
Oh wow loving this coolness video
YES! FINALLY! You guys got out to a mine! This is so awesome and I would love to see more videos like this!
Before I watched the video, I guessed that the mine was the Sweet Home Mine in Colorado and I was right. By the way, you were right that Rhodochrosite is the national gemstone of Argentina.
Aquamarine is Colorado's state gem, Rhodochrosite is Colorado's state MINERAL.
would have love to see the different habitus of the crystals. very nice show
Best episode of JTV ever.
Awesome beautiful crystals
On location is cool and the Rhodochrosite is awesome.
This is one of the coolest episodes yet!! This channel has such refined and good content.
Thank you!
Amazing and definitely do more field gem trips
My favorite yt show
Those specimens are absolutely gorgeous!!!! The second one is so perfect!
Oh that's so cool. Oh BTW I live in Colorado. I'm glad to have that gem as this state's gem
My state gem is benitoite, which was my favorite gemstone before I even learned it was my state gem!
Not trying to be a troll but the state gemstone of CO is actually aquamarine. The state mineral is rhodochrosite. Still loved the video tho :)
This is so chill omg and the bg music is awesome.
You inspire me to become a gemologist myself. Thank you for the edutainment. I love your videos! 💝
Thanks, Ayesha! That means so much to me to hear you say that!
HEY AYESHA HELLO
Had to watch this one after the recent "unboxing 3mil" video. Much love to all the miners who's labors give our industry life and to the whole jtv crew, of course!
Amazing!
Thank you.
This video was freaking amazing!
Thank you!
Yay, Natalie! You finally made it out for a field trip!👍❤
I would have liked to see his collection. :)
Love the show. But can you do some closeups of the specimens/stones. Especially when you have such pieces! 😅
They should do a tour of his collection?
Yay
Wow, the aesthetic of this video is goreous...
YES
The gemmy crystal form reminds me of watermelon! Lucious!
That’s glorious
I wish you guys would zoom in on the samples when she’s talking
how long ago was this filmed cuz I thought CO was covered in *beautiful snow* (im from Hawaiʻi, we don't really get snow)
This. Is. Amazing.
Looks yummy.
Back in the day......one could walk up the old sweet home mine roads and find beautiful rhodo specimens. The silver miners would use the over burden to build pack roads and quite often this mineral was in the over burden. Nearly 50 yrs old now and still have a 5gal bucket of gems, ive given over 10x that away over the years....and NO you cant have them back.....wink.
Hype!
we in for a treat today wow
Dang it's nice to be so early!
Haha, I also would look at it and think of making jewelry. But I also appreciate it in the rough.
above Fairplay? we fund it west of you, on silver
So freaking cool
How much would that be
How long it takes to grow a crystal depends on the kinds of minerals in them. Sugar crystal are small but copper sulfate crystals more than two inches across can be grown overnight.
Thats not what I would call a fiery red
Thats more a hot pink/red
Oliver Phoenix Some specimens are a bright red color but they are usually scalenohedral crystals from South Africa
Just taking a casual trip to Colorado to make a video on the Bacon Crystal.
I want to buy a banded piece but it’s so expensive
Does that not look like a green screen to anyone else I mean I feel like if she was up that high there would be wind and she would have to be louder and she’s on the edge of the cliff operantly because you can’t see anything other than the mountains and the table
Do clouds change shape on a green screen? Because the clouds and the sunlight keeps changing. I’ve spent a lot of time camping in the Rockies and it’s not always windy.
The sound in the background kinda makes me sick.
