Macroscopic Characteristics of Minerals Part 1: Luster and Color

[@waelfadlallah8939]

That was genuinely a treat to watch !. We're so lucky that you're the only one to deal with such amazing and forgotten topics. A side note also that this topics are never easy to explain especially in a brief video but fortunately for us you give a new definition for excellency.

@@VestigialHead i meant for an average learner like me i never had the chance to dive deeply in such topic since the majority of youtube educational channels offers the most topics related strictly to medicine, biology, chemistry, etc.. so to find a well known channel that encompasses all what science has to offer is quite exciting for me :)

Yo the amount of highly insightful information packed into 8 mins here is actually incredible. Well done.

[@MOBDEEP555]

Been getting into Rocks and Minerals for about a year watching KZbin videos. Your simple straightforward explanation of things is awesome. Thanks!

[@friguspersona]

Gotta say. Quality content with intellectual literature used in this video, Huge thanks for educating more than millions of students and probably saving their marks on their test.

Honestly, this guy would've made me ace Org back in college, lmao

[@s4sausage135]

its nice weve gon back to the cool science tutorials after the amount of ppl needing to be debunked by the genius dave tho that was realy fun to watch this is interesting

[@coffee115]

This might be random, but have you done a video on elements used in classic paints? Thanks, Dave!

[@flynnorourke7620]

Pigments are made from all sorts of things like eg elephant urine provided the elephants have only eaten mango leaves 🍃 you should probably know this 😅 if you’re watching this video however aboriginal art would consist of more elements than classical European paints

[@CGFillertext]

I love learning about minerals

[@misterocain]

1:04 what great names for a rewrite of the 7 dwarfs. Seriously though, very informative video.

[@summeren64]

How did you become so knowledgeable on so many different an diverse subjects? I am amazed by your brain.

5:04 So Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire were really about the same mineral!?

[@yuusufliibaan1380]

Wow, good lesson and really valuable, thank you my dear teacher for the valuable knowledge you have given us. Thank you again, God bless you teacher

[@flynnorourke7620]

You’re videos without the outdo and the intro would be great bro I could almost fall asleep to your words of wisdom or at least get in the zone ya feel me g

Do more on space dave

[@hectornunez6681]

Wow tremendous information in the amount of time ... 🙏❤️

[@twomist5]

omg I have always wanted to know where minerals like ruby get their color. TYSM!

[@pramodsingh7898]

Thanks

[@aaroncoffman7267]

Thank you for covering this material! Mineralogy can be a difficult topic for undergrads.

[@qzh00k]

Cool and thanks Dave. Color scales and mapping might he a cool topic, talk some pantone maybe? Flat verse gloss? Four bit colors were a big thing.

[@glennpearson9348]

Professor Dave: Can you comment on opal? It's my birthstone (October) and I've never been in a position to conduct the tests you're describing here on opal. I'd assume that opal is some kind of hydrated silica based on its outward appearance, but opals I've seen come in many different colors and degrees of translucency. Does this mean that different opals pick up different trace metals to produce different colors? Thanks again for these informative videos!

[@sugarfrosted2005]

Technically all corundum that aren't rubies are called sapphire, doesn't require they be blue.
