Rock crystal is my fav! I love to see old pieces of jewelry, reliquaries, vases and things that were made out of rock crystal before they were able to make clear glass. My all time Fav is the ImperiaI Crystal Fabergé Egg, The Standart Yach Egg!

Can you please make a video explaining the difference between CZ, White Sapphire, Morganite, and Moissanite and Diamond. All white for jewelry reference. and please use florescence (blue light flashlight) comparing them at some point. Would really like to hear what you guys have to say on the matter. Love your videos always ! Thank you

I always felt weird when I said that I love COLORLESS Fluorite the most, despite a lot of people going ham for the colored ones. Don't get me wrong~! I love me a beautiful Minerva No1 Mine Specimen (Which is still on my bucket list!) or a gorgeous, green Xianghualing! But the colorless pieces, such as a amazing Grube Clara piece from Germany or a Dalnegorsk Specimen are, to me, just simple & incredibly beautiful. Especially if they have this beveled edges-shape. I didn't know that there are colorless Beryl as well! Welp! Time to extend my wishlist!

That was a fascinating episode! I was not aware of even half of the gems you showed! It's always fascinating to me when I can learn something new and this episode was filled with new information! So thank you both for the education! I'm really going to have to save this episode or maybe download it because it was so full of new types of gemstones that I've never heard of it was almost sensory overload! But it will be great material to look back on and study!! Thanks again to both of you for a really great episode!❤

Great video. I thought corundums were aluminum oxides, not silicates? The Goshenite shown has an area of bluish zoning which was probably preserved in the finished stone to retain weight and (very nicely) add intrigue. You can tell the blue is a zone as the gem is turned. I also might've not directly handled the Pollucite even though the risk of exposure to trace amounts of cesium is probably slim. Which is more valuable, Pollucite or Petalite? I love the chemistry component of gems. It's just mind-boggling to me that altering the ratios and amounts of Be, Si, O, and Al can give you Phenakite.......or a more prized Goshenite. Wow! 🤨

I believe the correct term for Phenakite is a nesosilicate not a neosilicate. Yes, some people use the term "neosilicate" but they are wrong. Neso- means island which is a reference to the fact that there are isolated silicate tetrahedra connected to each other by interstitial cations. These silicate tetrahedra therefore form "islands". Neosilicate doesn't mean anything. Neo- in both Greek and Latin means "new" which makes no sense in this context. I think "neosilicate" is simply a misreading of "nesosilicate" that many people have just run with.

Corundums are aluminium oxides, not aluminium silicates as stated around 9:38. Easy slip up after all of the other silicate minerals. Still a great video!

Maine also has a lot of Goshenite! For Maine Beryls, Goshenite and Aquamarine are kind of like two ends of a spectrum. Stones in-between are given one name or the other depending on which they are closer to. Aquamarine is also more profitable to sell. It's kind of like pink sapphire vs ruby.

The Bethel, ME area is a great place to go rock hounding. Because of how the mines used to harvest mica in the region, there are huge piles of rubble filled with tourmalines, garnets, multiple types of quartz, special types of feldspar, and less well known gems like the beryllium-containing one also mentioned in this video. Plus, there's a beautiful gem museum in Bethel that focuses entirely on the gemicological history and makeup of Maine. You may even meet the folks who own the world's biggest known ore of lithium. It's a really fun way to learn about gemstones and rock hounding, but it's still accessible for beginners. If you venture out to the Maine coast, you may get to visit a beach painted with garnet sand! (That is sand made out of garnet instead of quartz/calcium carbonate.)

You can also get a bucket of the mine dirt mailed to you at home. I also forgot to mention that some of the largest Beryls in the world have been found in the region. There's also incredible mica that the government and public relied on for important technological progress. I think I'm done... maybe...
