Emerald emeralds are lovely but I kinda like the mint green ones too.

[@anirudh23pramanik]

It's more of aquamarine rather than emerald... For confirmation of emerald it should checked with Chelsea filter

[@tedseb7726]

Aquamarine wouldn’t be nearly as included. Eye clean is how they come out of the ground 90% of the time.

[@gamesnmore6683]

Aquamarine has rather bluish green colour

[@gamesnmore6683]

Less inclusion in aquamarine

[@isaacmorales4859]

I’m not surprise he can’t identify basic gemstones, and that’s emerald is poor quality he better start educating himself or he is going to lose money.

[@Maevelikeschampagne]

@@isaacmorales4859umm that was just an example. He was playing mystery gemstone so he could illustrate how to identify any gemstone. I doubt this guy was stumped by that stone.

[@CharlemagneProkopyshyn]

Oooh great tests and example of how to use the gadgets! Thanks! This was a great short video! Thanks!

[@JohnCannonBand]

Please do more videos like this. This is the format I like out of all your videos. Thank you.

[@kimberlyaustin6677]

I was going to say Paraiba Tourmaline, but it's an EMERALD! Lucky owner!

[@Wvnursey]

Ditto!

[@LucretiaPearl]

I guessed right!

[@Somethingfunny1111]

This was so cool to watch!

[@tomvalveede6808]

I guessed Right when I first saw it! Great, interesting vlog! 😃

[@billyethridge1558]

So did I. I suppose all the videos I’ve watched have taught me more than I realized.

[@bonitastjulienlepauvre6489]

Same here; currently wearing yellow beryl. Love all beryls.

[@truelytreasured3990]

The emeralds i inherited from my grandmother are way way darker than that. I didnt know they come in different colors of green

[@MrXxz368]

I knew it, kinda super blue for an emerald, but that's the way they are normally.

[@cheryldats]

Emerald💚

[@donnaboyle669]

To me I immediately thought it an emerald. Most aquamarine’s are clear. Not cloudy or inclusion. It’s still pretty.

[@captainbluemccoy223]

There is lot to learn about Gemstones.

[@Tim_ra]

Green Beryl.

[@Mr.Cathedral]

Ahhhh I loves gems, I just posted a few on my channel

[@LUCiFER-LYNN]

I guessed correct

[@jonathanb.1999]

That’s not emerald that’s green beryl. The green is not saturated enough to be considered emerald. At first glance I thought it was aquamarine because it was so light and bluish only to notice a hint of green afterwards

[@dmhq-administration]

...or topaz! But you're right! I did research on it!

[@tammyphillips6299]

I guessed correctly! 🎉

[@charsiu_808]

I recognize your voice!! I follow you on Instagram!

[@benfinds]

where do you see that chart? i have a few gemstones Id like to test.

[@sharifahhawaalrifaei1397]

maybe aquamarine but if emarald very special 😊

[@Edna2u]

That's a nice one

[@Celestial_Reach]

I use the refractometer way to much. As soon as tou showed the scale at about 1.57 I was sure. Cause tourmaline and apatite is in the 1.62ish area. I've tested way too many rocks

[@GoldRushDenver-e7b]

I got that one!!!

[@MrCunningham4]

Just by the color I thought it was an aqua marine, guess I wasn't too far off

[@gavinalderman4428]

Same! I have some aquamarine coming in that ALMOST matches that hue; Greenish-blue. The inclusions is what made me second guess myself.

[@johnnyllooddte3415]

ahahah emeralds 1000 dollars, aquamarine 5 dollars..yup you were close

[@arianatwiss4600]

It almost is! Aquamarine is a variety of beryl, same as emerald, and color wise its REALLY close

[@MrCunningham4]

@@arianatwiss4600 That's what I was saying, it's very close to the bluish green you get with aqua marine, but the main give away I guess are the inclusions and how it's just slightly more green than blue

[@jayanthaweerasinghe7871]

❤super bro.🎉

[@DuncanL7979]

Green beryl, not emerald.

[@s.v.662]

Do another one 😀

[@isurumaddumage1922]

Every greenish beryl is not Emerald.

[@kristinetrott5087]

Because of all the inclusions it is emerald, but that pale coloring and aqua tinge is more like aquamarine, only thise are usually very clear. Interesting to discover it's an emerald.. any idea of it's origin?

[@johnnyllooddte3415]

what about the hammer test

[@asheland_numismatics]

Very cool. 👍

[@Phethephoenix]

One glance told me that that was likely aquamarine.

[@2011blueman]

Then you should see an optometrist. The stone had way too many inclusions to be an aquamarine. It was pretty clearly a poor quality emerald at first glance.

[@MaritsaDarman]

I would love one. Where is the best price

[@firehai8680]

How you can say, Emerald? Chelsea test must include, in yours video, for the public, Otherwise may be only Green Beryl

[@gems]

The Chelsea test isn't diagnostic and doesn't work with all emeralds. Many real, natural emeralds will not show up red in the CCF. It is still a handy tool, particularly for quickly scanning stones in a parcel, but must be supported by other testing methods.

[@Cal3bC00p3r]

How much do all those tools cost? And that chart?

[@zacharyberry5019]

Wouldn’t this be an aquamarine?? It looks more like a blue beryl to me.. just with a lot more inclusions than I’m used to

[@tedseb7726]

It’s unlikely to be aquamarine being that it is heavily included whereas aquamarine generally comes from the ground eye clean. The difference between gems despite being easily identifiable by color are not classified exclusively by color but instead the kind of inclusions formed that are responsible for the characteristics of the stone. Primarily the color amongst other things.

[@alexmihai3906]

Please do test for raw diamond Sir

[@coreymerrill3257]

So not green beryl ? I thought there was a color intensity distinction between green beryl and true emeralds. I know emerald must have chromium or vanadium to make the green . I know it is fascinating that corundum is red from chromium but green in beryl.

[@Richard-t4d6t]

I have Zambian Emerald from 1 up to 2.5 cts

[@-7070]

At first glance I almost thought paraiba tourmaline, until you got up close. The color I wouldn't of assumed emerald tho

[@AuroraMoonRise]

Insane! I thought for sure it was a paraiba. It’s gorgeous!

[@cosifantutte1071]

Paraiba tourmaline

[@MoistCubicle]

Wait, can’t that droplet technically end up on a different line for measurement every time due to the amount of oil in the dropper ???

[@lifeaddict]

🤔 does look more of a aqua, or green beryl. Slightly too light to be emerald I say?

[@goodgat266]

I thought it was a piece of candy.

[@YunxiaoChu]

Guessed beryl at first glance lol

[@dmhq-administration]

Is there a light colored emerald? Very light emerald is actually classified as green beryl, while the emerald to the dark receives the prestigious title of emerald. The best emerald is that has a level of 75% tone, where 0% is a transparent stone and 100% will be opaque black. Why does my emerald look blue? If the hue is too yellowish or too bluish, the stone is not emerald, but a different variety of beryl, and its value drops accordingly. The intensity of the green in the finest emeralds might not be equaled by anything else in nature.

[@HoboMinerals]

What’s the cheapest and most effective Polariscope and refractometer you might recommend to a hobo? Asking for myself..

[@shadow_phoenix_alex]

I guessed Aquamarine as it appears to me more blue to turquoise than green. Still a beryl though.

[@Greyheart67]

An Emerald? With its color I thought it was an aquamarine! 😅 That color doesn’t really scream ‘green’ to me! Maybe blue-green maybe? But not green!

[@Cal3bC00p3r]

I thought it was an aquamarine too.

[@gavinalderman4428]

I think we all got stumped! The color is aquamarine but the inclusions are emerald 😅 they're both beryl with similar colors, it can get CRAZY hard to tell the difference when you don't have the fancy gear or expert eye

[@jaygee2889]

Aqua: blue beryl Heliodor: yellow beryl Emerald: emerald green/ blue green Green beryl: green. Goshenite: peachy clear. As far as I am aware you can get green beryl without it being emerald, just because it's included beryl it's not always emerald lol, if anybody sees this wanna comment underneath what red beryl's often called 😆😍

[@staganomal9447]

Green Beryl is not emerald

[@frenchrevenge6406]

Yes it is 💀

[@Hhmfcdftihyep]

If I understand this correctly, every emerald is a green beryl, but not all green beryls are emeralds.

[@loril.mangold8160]

I knew it was Beryl without the test, I have some natural beryl,

[@abrahamoflions]

Green beryl more than a proper emerald. Didn’t need the equipment to come to that conclusion. A R

[@davidbiron4186]

That is beautiful

[@GenderLoin]

I guessed emerald just with the colour and inclusions.

[@ES-7766]

I’m sure you knew it was an emerald as soon as you saw it. If I knew it, you did too.

[@heartsfaith7077]

My guess was aquamarine

[@codyihler9881]

I highly doubt that is an emerald. Looks more like aquamarine.

[@TreeCutterDoug]

Neat... I called it.

[@robinforest7043]

Wow I guessed it ! Beautiful stone ! RM.

[@ABerCul]

Emerald

[@affbcx3032]

It is a mistake… If we talk about chromophore: Emerald = Chromium Green Beryl = Valnadium You just seem to want to sell a green beryl for an emerald and get the price premium 😂

[@gems]

Green beryl is colored by iron. Vanadium is recognized around the world and by the most prominent gem authorities as one of the coloring agents of emerald.

[@barbaralatham3037]

Columbian emerald

[@adityatatar6980]

Technically you are wrong As per GIA This would be called only beryl nd not emerald as its tone and saturation is lower than moderate. But yes in trade most people will sell this calling it as russian emerald.

[@Jessica-ticino]

Because of the color I was sure it's an aquamarine! Where does color of aquamarnie stop and the color range of emerald start? How can we tell the difference? Kind regards from switzerland 🇨🇭

[@gems]

Lots of different opinions in the marketplace as to how bluish the green in emerald should be. But, emerald's color should be largely due to chromium or vanadium, whereas aquamarine's blue is due to iron. There are advanced ways to determine this. A simpler method is using a spectroscope, where emerald should show a characteristic pattern with absorption lines in the red portion of the spectrum and weak absorption in orange to yellow.

[@Jessica-ticino]

@@gems thank you so much for explaining! I didn't knew about the different elements causing the bluish color in aquamarine and emerald! Really learned something new. 😊 thank you for your work on this channel. I binge-watch your videos since I discovered the channel. 😅

Who else thought it was a paraiba tourmaline

Look like emerald but mite be aqua

[@davidariamirroarkyoung]

Only one in a million emeralds mined is transparent instead of translucent

[@cloudkari9057]

Yeah let's not go to as far as an emerald. It's a little too light. It's more of an aquamarine.

[@vutube379]

Looks like scratched glass.

[@tipr8739]

My guess is emerald

[@harrymorant666breaker4]

Nice

[@benjiesanmiguel8420]

Too green for an aquamarine…
