Water? Petroleum? Tourmaline??? What's your favorite quartz inclusion? Let us know here!

[@rogerhargreaves2272]

Definitely the Petroleum Quartz, a real collectors item there. Thanks for sharing.

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

Considering that quartz is the most common thing used as a gemstone, all of them 🥰 like she said the story they tell is the best part, geologically. Like the Medusa ones, tells you so much about the geologic history of the secondary copper deposits in Arizona, and amazed that they were so recently discovered! Would love to know what those inclusions are though, probably something along the lines of chrysocolla?

[@GOLD_FEVER]

You guys missed Ajoite!!! And Dumortierite...

[@cathrynbyrnes8737]

I own an enhydro. Loved this episode!

[@KrosanBeast315]

Magnesioriebeckite... it can turn Quartz a gorgeous Denim blue color

[@dylanlangford7786]

Started my geology degree this year!!! Thanks for introducing me to the wonderful world of mineralogy 4 years ago ❤

[@gems]

That's awesome! You're welcome!

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

Keep it up! The study of geology is so so rewarding wherever you're from! I got started early cuz I'm from Colorado and there's lots to wonder about, but anywhere on this planet is amazing geology with lots to consider! And then some, cuz then you'll get into coastal geology and glaciation and all the things they come with but yeah. Best luck to you in your education!

[@barbaraeidinger6826]

Love the Gilalite. And Sharon is delightful. Have her back, anytime.

[@ChipSmithVOL]

Rob - loving your new co-host.

[@milanopiano]

My absolute favourite category of minerals. I LOVE THESE SPECIMENS!! 😍

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

A fellow person of good taste!

[@jtamsmom5]

I love the faceted epidote in quartz. Amazing to look at. Nsync joke was great

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

The NSYNC joke made me crack up too 🤣

[@lissetteflores4469]

Rob! You're back! 🎉 yay 🎉

[@attazsurvival9761]

Love those Quartz inclusion. Amazing and wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

[@user-vw4fw2sm5s]

Wunderschöne Steine ganz toll. 😊

[@largent45]

That was so much fun! I love Included quartz! I have a rutile in quartz pendant and a tourmilated quartz cab. And some petroleum quartz too. I really want an e hydro though! That's my wish list item! I still need the Medusa and the strawberry quartz too. I may have to look into your little bundles! Thanks guys!❤

[@user-ji8qg9df5m]

Their combined excitement upon the first opening is soo cute!

[@Jalynn_CP]

Sherry is already my best friend in my head JUST because she incorporated *NSYNC 😂

[@soomcire]

Included quartz is so fascinating! So cool to see so many. “stained glass” amethyst is a fave in my collection

[@kiro9291]

the gilalite and petroleum inclusions are amazing!!

[@xBuffaloBrad]

This host rocks! (Not Rob, who is obviously the GOAT) "It's like a pair of chopsticks in there!" Love her.

[@narellepy]

I was so excited to get this parcel but unfortunately the website doesn't offer shipping to Australia. Hope in the future this feature can be added. Love all your videos I'm 3rd year geology student and really enjoy the educational content you guys provide. Keep it up 🔥❤️

[@abdellahog9386]

Petroleum included quartz😊

[@user-jy4kb4wu1k]

I love the tourmalated quartz. I'm always looking for it when I collect. Non yet a few maybe pieces tho

[@jakobraahauge7299]

The charming company is my absolute favourites, but the quarts with reddish/brown (I see apricot though) really was a gem

[@Algoldprospecting]

Very cool 😊. I’m lucky to find lots of quartz with inclusions when prospecting. My favorite is tourmaline which I have many nice ones 😮

[@loripeterson6926]

Paradise. This is super super duper cool

[@veronica0406]

Awesome episode! Thank You!

[@gems]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@bethlovesthings]

It felt like the close up went for 5 seconds 😂 id take more, just sayin. I loved robs pick

[@patriciamorgan6545]

I bought that parcel several years ago. It's amazing!

[@DuncanL7979]

How did they just make a video with the parcel if you bought it years ago?

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

Wow those were some amazing things to see! Never seen the one included by the pretty blue lil medusas though wow! And there is an abandoned iron mine here in Colorado that produced some beautiful gemmy epidote, though the crystals are on the small side. Picked a few myself off the tailings pile

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

The location is a bit south of the mineral belt, and strange geologically for what it is. Iron deposits aren't what Colorado is known for, and this one is relatively isolated though easily accessible. The epidote is associated with calcite and pyrite so it's some sort of unique secondary thing I assume. Lots of weird things here, kinda along the lines of Victor- and Creede-type deposits ❤️ Colorado geology is the best 🥰

[@lorawaring883]

Very cool!

[@jasonanderson291]

I immediately checked my Herkimer diamonds thanks for the tip

[@morganelzey]

WOW!! So cool!

[@Gojiraa666]

First comment AND thumbs up. I need a hobby or I have crazy timing. Love this channel, keep it up! 😎

[@tigeznz8563]

LOV the Epidote 💖. Are these gemstones only found in the US ? I wonder what Gemstones grow in New Zealand 🇳🇿 🤔

[@SharpAssKnittingNeedles]

The unique geology that created your beautiful country is on par with my home state of Colorado! Be amazed if you aren't knee-deep in amazing mineral specimens there lol

[@dwarvenaled]

Nature is a better artist.

[@ResortDog]

Swordfish Mining says UV all your enhydros for Green glowing bubbles.

[@deborahellenberger7153]

It is difficult to watching such amazing items for sale when you don’t ship to Canada😢. Still enjoy the content though. 🥰

[@gems]

Sorry to hear that, we love our international viewers! But if you're in Canada, you may be in luck. It says on our site that there are shipping options for Canada and Mexico. For more info, please contact our Customer Experience Team 1-800-550-8393.

[@fennynough6962]

Can different types of Quartz have a wide range of Hardness? Like from a 5 to a 9 on the MOH's scale?

[@gems]

There is a range, but not that extreme. Typically the range is stated as 6 to 7. The macrocrystalline varieties (such as rock crystal or amethyst) are usually 7, while polycrystalline forms (such as chalcedony) may be 6.

[@ChipSmithVOL]

Rob - don't drink it liquid - we have had problems with that in the past.

[@nicolevancoevorden8723]

I have a polished slab of mineral with a feathery pattern inside Any ideas? I can't identify it. I have a rock business

[@user-rl5nd3ys8p]

🇦🇺👍

[@KrosanBeast315]

Quartz that contains Rutile, Tourmaline or Actinolite is given the Variety Call: Sagenitic. I got into a lot of trouble with the G.I.A. for calling these materials "Tourmalinated" Quartz or "Rutilated" Quartz during my courses

[@1Tahseen1]

Hi sir I'm watching your videos on KZbin I'm want your watts app number
