Thank u for ur awesome channel!
That was a great lesson Paul, Thank you so much. 😁👌 Really awesome and really be looking forward to the Wednesdays Q&A's.
One would need to be pretty stupid to be ran over by one of those monster trucks. I doubt the trucks move very quickly, and it's not like you wouldn't see, hear, and feel the ground shaking as it coming your way. So, I dont get it!?
Is it true that the color of chrysoprase can fade when exposed to excessive heat and/or sunlight, but can be restored with moisture?
Sir
Is it worth doing the G.G course by IGI?
I am from India
And this course is available in multiple cities in India
Hello again, Salah. Let me first say that getting a gemstone education, especially a a graduate gemologist degree, is always worth it. There are some discussions out there on the value of an IGI degree versus a GIA degree. There are some that say that the IGI diamond certifications are not as consistently accurate as the GIA certifications. Others say that the IGI's reputation worldwide is better than it may be in the USA . In any event, you would do well to research both organizations and choose which is best for you. Good luck and keep me posted!
@@pauldeasygemstones thanks sir
Another 4$ word you hear for these stones is "cryptocrystalline quartz".
Your dragon dictate is awful. You need to train it better and make corrections.
💚💚💚💚
Also have you done on just on pearls
imo, chrysoprase is one of my favorite stones, along with gem silica and opal. Opal is technically also the same chemical composition as chalcedony's, with the exception of traces of water trapped in the stone.
Plenty of gemstones and agates in the Bobonong region of Botswana with various colours including grey, green, pink, orange, e.t.c
I love chrysoprase! Thank you for the background info on this under-appreciated gemstone.
Thanks so much for this. I have a website on birthstones, and chrysoprase is a secondary birthstone in May. You taught me a lot!
So interesting and educational. Always good to learn, and you make it fun too.
Thank you for this lesson. this is why I love your channel it reminds me of all the gem Stone s that get overlooked
I m having this stone in my mine,light to dark green
Is it possible to buy them from your mine?
Awesome show Paul 😉 2 shows a week so exciting!!!!!!!
I figured you would like that, Tommy. I still need to get my friend Tom Elliott back on, but in the meantime I will do some frequently asked questions each wednesday
@@pauldeasygemstones keep up the good work your gonna shine !!! 😉
Very interesting. Thanks Paul!
Gaspeite is technically a hydrated nickel magnesium iron carbonate, hydrated nickel magnesite without the iron is "lemon magnesite"
It's a small difference chemically but the colour is often quite different.
There is also another obscure variant called widgiemoolthalite which is often more blueish in colour and a little softer than gaspeite, essentially just the nickel structural analogue of hydromagnesite.
