1 Million Dollars in Sapphires - Most Colorful Gemstone?

[@gems]

We always love it when Andrew visits! So many sapphires...and so many colors - especially the dazzling sunset sapphires! Which was your favorite?

[@lorawaring883]

Montana sapphires. But the roughs from Sri Lanka are pretty cool. :)

Great guest. Loved the other episode

[@msclairesstuff3179]

This guy Andrew is my newest favorite guest lol! Can you please do a similar episode on all the tourmaline colors as well? How you were all mixing the color grades in the table is how I color sort my tourmalines!! 💎 Yes Andrew, you stumbled into my favorite guilty pleasure- color-sorting & playing with my gems is 1 of the best ways to asses any haul from a day of gem hunting. You should do it on-screen for us more often! 😁. Yeah I geeked out with you both on this episode. Keep up the fine work !

I just was in Mckays in Knoxville, and you would never believe what I found!! A full set of Sisk Gemology reference books!!! All 468/1000, I have been wanting these books for such a long time and never in a million years thought I would find them at a used book store in practically brand new condition, I’m so stoked to have them in my collection now! Your guy’s channel has had such an impact in my craving for knowledge of mineralogy, and I just wanted to say thank you for that :)

[@sandmaker]

I had to stop and get a towel, i was drooling so much. I think I would have been speechless and just making funny gurgling noises if I had been there. One of the best explanations I have ever heard for sapphires. Excellent, excellent, excellent. I will now go and have sapphire dreams. Thank you all for the show. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒

As a graphic designer and someone who is now seriously studying gemology and the geology I feel like I genuinely have found my people. Sending love!

[@beamasters1621]

I love the sapphire as it's my birth stone but I just love the red Ruby for the beautiful colour. One day maybe ... I just turned 56 and still have neither . I don't even have a gold or silver chain/ necklace yet . Something of it is on my bucket list 🙂. Loved watching this show . Thank you & God bless you 🤗🙏

[@largent45]

Wow! I love all the colors of gorgeous corundum! sapphires, and rubies are just gorgeous, but people dont realize that sapphires come in all different colors, including colorless. My favorite is the montana sapphires because you can get all the colors in one locale. And the polished ones were fantastic! And the man made material being used for cell phone, watch faces, etc. Rubies are gorgeous, but i have always loved sapphire, in all its colors but the rich dark blue is still fav. The bi-color is my favorite and thats where the montanas come in. Thanks for the awesome video and i agree, its almost sensory overload! But im not complaining! And Andrews ASMR with the stones was fantastic! I could listen to that all day! Awesome video and Yes, bring 2 million worth of stones next time. Any type of stones! lol!

[@parkerlynne]

I agree, the sheer variety of colors that sapphires can be is absolutely amazing.

[@zuzannawisniewska4464]

Yes. I agrre.

[@monkeh4225]

Just like spinels

[@baileywright1656]

Gosh, I was so jealous watching you run your hands through those piles! Sapphires are definitely my favourite. Next time you do a video featuring them, you should get a colour change one :D I have a blue-to-purple one that fluoresces like a ruby in my engagement ring. For sure one of the coolest minerals I have. Thanks so much for the video - I really liked seeing the rough specimens!

[@mohamedfarsan8032]

Hi

[@lisacrandall409]

Fantastic episode, what a dream to have all those stunning sapphires to look at and play with. I was interested in Andrew’s comment about differentiating synthetic star sapphires from natural star sapphires, by looking at the fluidity... I would love to see a more in-depth discussion of this, using both natural and synthetic to demonstrate the difference. As always, awesome work team!

[@TheAnswerEjF]

She is the best host ever. Ive watched for years and she is just great. Love thus channel so much. So much knowledge

[@victoriarakus5729]

I love sapphires so much. The store where I work has a greenish-blueish Burmese sapphire, a bit over 10ct, and I'm always so happy when I get to hold it or show it! One hefty stone.

[@richardraymond5133]

I've been hooked on watching Tims Adventures, he's an Australian sapphire miner who videos himself underground mining and after the material is topside and sorted through his machine he sorts his treasures. There's a lot I've wondered about different colors and watching your video I now have answers. Thank you

[@williamhart4896]

Thanks and I am almost drooling looking at the sapphires on your video many thanks

[@jasonbuzzalini5174]

Can’t get enough sapphires in my life! More is ALWAYS better!

[@guitarhiker4449]

Wow!! I remember getting my first piece of rutilated quartz and being so happy lol but rutilated sapphires are really cool. My favorite piece is the big blue one Andrew likes but my second favorite is actually the little dark coffin shaped sapphire. The clear ones with iron in them are cool too. The cats eye or star sapphire is insane too! Thanks for sharing.

[@cassandralyris4918]

Awe yeah, colorful corundum in time for all our Virgo birthdays. YES! I'd love to go out to Montana and dig up some of the green blue sapphires up there. Doesn't matter to me that they're not "gem quality" I'd just love the experience. 😍 Such a fun video!

ooo also maybe next time emeralds and blue/green/teal ones ... I loved the host rocks tooo such a difference in color .... maybe some teal and purple rocks, some gems that are not as popular or that we might not expect but are cool colors .... even quartz lol .... id love to do some by geology history for ex Montana or rockies vs Appalachians even white mountains

Bi-color sapphires are so amazing, and especially unique. I really love all of the colors, even the popular blue, but having that extra sense of individuality makes bi-color even more special!

[@LostWithoutHer]

This video was filled with jaw-drop moments. The fact that the more prized rubies are found in marble now makes me curious. If some of the world's finest white marble is from Italy and Greece, are rubies found in that marble as good as Burmese? If not, why not? This Sapphire video now has me re-thinking my fav gemstone group rankings. Tourmalines vs. Corundums vs. Garnets.

[@roughdiamondworld6815]

It is very rare to find the exact conditions for sapphires to form. Silica is very common and sapphires need a silica free environment. Also, the conditions for their formation start at a high temperature and slowly over time cool off.

[@LostWithoutHer]

@@roughdiamondworld6815 So, are you basically suggesting that Burmese marble is free or almost free of silica whereas Greek and Italian are not? (Because what you said about silica had already been said by the video presenters.) Is there an echo in here, here, here, here, here.........?

[@k.hendrickson8735]

@@LostWithoutHer >> Lol. Probably just rare Pockets of the right marble… Natural Ruby is getting rarer and rarer. Asia and India is putting all kinds of glass and dye treatments in poor, rough ruby. Then outlets like Macy’s and Kohl’s sell them as ‘natural’ Buyer Beware when finding a decent value in a ruby. I have been looking for years…🥹 I would not consider one without a Lab Report, or two!

Thank you so much for these videos. This was super interesting, one because I may have identified a stone I have found. And because it's filling in the pieces of the jigsaw of how rocks are formed.
