What a BEAUTIFUL SLICE OF HEAVEN! GOD IS SOOO BEAUTIFUL! I WILL FORGET NOT THE WORKS OF THINE HANDS, O GOD! Thank you King Jesus! Yet another reminder of How BEAUTIFUL & WONDERFUL HEAVEN ITSELF IS!

[@KrosanBeast315]

Jesus and heaven have nothing to do with anything made by nature, especially crystals. Jesus was a carpenter.. not a Gemologist, or even a Chemist which he would need to be to make crystals at all. Crystals are made of very specific chemistry under precise conditions and temperatures for MILLIONS or even BILLIONS of years. Instead of thanking Jesus, thank our Earth and Mother Nature, not a single man or any place made up like Heaven. Without Nature, there would be no Universe, no Galaxies, no Solar Systems, no planets, no crystals, NO HUMANS, and certainly no LIFE at all.

[@carolineninowoods4082]

ilililhy1 You got it! This video SCREAMS CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH! WE GIVE YOU GLORY AND PRAISE FOR THE GEMS YOU PUT IN THE EARTH! FATHER OF LIGHTS KING JESUS FOREVER!

[@KrosanBeast315]

Caroline Nino Woods+ There is NO creator of Heaven and Earth and there is no Being or entity which has a form either. It has been proven by science that there is no need for any Creator or God, and that the Universe has always existed. So, a Creator is not necessary and just a scapegoat for people needing something to point a finger at and say, "he/she did it". No creator 'put' minerals or crystals in the Earth, for that would mean that all of them would need to formed on another planet not in our Solar System and placed here somehow... which is absurd. It took two stars dying before our Sun formed in the first place for our Solar System to have enough leftover elements to create our Planet with enough reserve elements to attempt to make minerals and crystals. It is chemistry, a pure science. It is nothing more with the right amount of ingredients, time, pressure and precise arrangements that no intangible thing can produce. Also... Jesus wasn't a 'King', for he never ruled over anyone. His title on his cross as King of the Jews was actually made by the Roman Army to mock him as he died on it, if you read the historical records. A King rules over people, and has absolute power over everyone. But, like so many other people before him, Jesus was EXECUTED by Crucifixion(he didn't choose to die...that was a lie made up by the Church, as every historian will verify with facts that I don't have) like so many hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women, and children. Jesus was killed like any other criminal or political threat to the Roman authority, but the people who talk about Jesus tend to forget about that, don't they?! Worse, MILLIONS of innocent people have been killed in the name of Christianity and Catholicism...all because they wanted to believe something different and to scare people into paying money to the Roman Church or be damned to hell or killed as a heretic or a non-believer. It worked, and the Church has profited off of people's fear for CENTURIES and they still do to this day. If you need to profit off of people's fear to gain followers, you need to have your beliefs rewritten and your faith questioned. Anyone who talks about a faith that has killed MILLIONS of innocent people over a difference of spiritual opinion and PROFITS off of fear of damnation or deviation from anything they don't preach...has NO RITE to talk about how great a person Jesus was(since millions of people were killed in his name) or how great a Creator is because a Creator(if it existed) would NEVER allow innocent people to die over such a trivial matter or profit off of people pressuring others to join their cause like a drone and not be able to decide for themselves what they wish to believe and why. When a person accepts someone regardless of their religious or spiritual choice and never pressures anyone to think like they do, then they are truly one with the Universe to which were are all a part of.

[@rodfather8425]

KrosanBeast315 you spout off facts that you were taught. That’s all I hear from you is stuff others say or said weather it be mineral identification or the king of the universe. You my friend think you are smart but you are boastful and for no good reason because you can’t even identify the universe is calculated with math. Which is why we have science. You are looking at the slide through the microscope. . We are looking at the microscope. Go back to your worldly ignorant indoctrination or Stop parroting foolishness from fools if you want to stay sounding smart.

[@KrosanBeast315]

rock addict now Rod Father+ I am fully aware the Universe is calculated by Math. I have 2 books on Chaos Theory as well as 3 books on Fractal Geometry. My favorite is The Fractal Geometry of Nature by Benoit Mandelbrot(have you read the whole thing?) which vividly illustrates how Mathematical the Universe is...which includes Nature limited to the Earth. It is also interesting you mention Math because Mandelbrot and other Mathematicians who work with Fractal Geometry revealed that Euclidian Geometry which was used for over 2,000 years(especially by the Church) to attempt to define the Natural World and the Universe was wrong. In case you have forgotten, each Mineral is also highly mathematical: whether it is its System, Habit, Specific Gravity, Birefringence, or chemical makeup. I am a G.I.A. Graduate of Diamonds(August 2014 Alumni), so I have PASSED the G.I.A. once already. You need to know and calculate a RIDICULOUS amount of Math to pass the Academic and Practical course for the Diamonds and Diamond Grading Lab Class. From Kindergarten, I was sorting out and identifying thousands of dollars of gems(that is what happens when your Father is a Goldsmith). The Diamond District, Astro Gallery of Gems(the premiere store/gallery in the world), and The American Museum of Natural History's Mineral and Gem Exhibits were my BACKYARD since they were only 15 minutes away from where I lived. I spent a combined 30 years of my life learning about minerals and Gemstones from some of the best places in the world and mostly through hands on experience as well as learning from Gemstone Dealers. It is also easy for me to identify most of these Varieties and Species by sight in this video since I OWN nearly every Variety and Species in this video. Didn't plan on that, now did you?

They Are Truly Gems

[@KrosanBeast315]

No, almost all of these are not. A Gemstone has to be rare, beautiful, and durable. That is what the G.I.A. states as qualifications for a Gemstone. Almost everything here is way too fragile to be called a Gemstone. Also, there are several specimens of Native Metals in the video, and those are not Gemstones either.

Finding gemstones right from the earth and then seeing them in their finished form is fascinating. I went twice to mine for pink tourmaline and had a lot of fun. Would like to go and search for garnets and diamonds as well. The best colors for diamonds I think are pink and white.

This is a gorgeous video (thanks for sharing it). My only critique (for future reference) is that it would be even better if every specimen were identified (including multiple minerals in some views). That would change this video from a spectacular visual experience into (also) a valuable learning and memorization too. And on an I-Phone no less! Thanks for this.

David Myers thanks,,,would you like pakistani minerals?

[@KrosanBeast315]

Tayyab Jamal+ Don't advertise in a post. I was the one who identified many things not listed in the video.

[@KrosanBeast315]

Memorization is nothing with the knowledge of what you are looking at. You can show many people an Emerald cluster and a Green Beryl cluster and unless they know what to look for, they likely can't identify them correctly. When crystals are in their natural form and nearly perfect in showing off the Variety and Species, it helps in memorizing them to an extent. However, it is still not that easy. For example, many people tend to forgot that a Herkimer 'Diamond' is not a Diamond. Also, it is naturally faceted and double-terminated, unlike any other Variety of Quartz. Lastly, unlike any other Variety of Quartz(Amethyst, Ametrine, Aventurine, Citrine, Phantom, Praisolite, Seriphos Green, Rose, Star, Cat's Eye) Herkimer 'Diamond' has a Hardness of 7.5, not 7.0. I made a mistake about Chalcedony. It is a Species, not a Variety.

WOW, just think of all the time it took for those minerals, and gems to form, which were madly a wonderful Artist,GOD

[@KrosanBeast315]

It's chemistry, not artistry... There is no God, and no deity has a profession. Minerals are pure science. With Art you can make mistakes with a formula and it can still work. If a mistake is made in a mineral formula, it will never work.
