Quartz are some of my favorites ! I just love them. My favorites are the citrine's and smoky quartz . So beautiful ❤️ I carry a small tumbled Smoky at all times. The smooth texture is very soothing.

I enjoy watching these videos i don't plan on being a gemologist but i do enjoy learning about all these different types of gems keep up the good work jtv 👍

I love watching these people. They get excited over a bunch of rocks. Which I find cute and impressive at the same time. Thank you!

WOW! I'm from Poland and I didn't know about existence of natural prasiolite from Płóczki Górne. Thank you very much! 💚💚💚💚💚

Opals are a type of quartz

I have found Ametrine here in Arizona...that ranged from pale to really dark and rich in color..also..I have found petrified wood with really dark smokey quartz running through it..And I dont mean from a rock shop...

Lodalite is and forever will be my favorite Quartz

i have learned more things in this video than i will ever. truly enjoyed every bit of this video. loved how you mentioned the chemical and physical formulation process of those beautiful babies briefly!!!

That's cool about how the star is formed. I just ordered a star rose quartz sphere. But unfortunately it didn't have a star upon getting it it was nice peice though. I love this channel ❤️.

I love that you mentioned the star hologram in rose quartz. I just by luck, have 3 spheres that have star. They so magical

If you do a follow up I would love to learn more about tourmalinated quartz. I'm always so enchanted by it but I've never looked much into it

Just got my engagement ring in a brilliant cut rose quartz. Always been in love with the color

As simple and common as it is , sometimes those are the things that take us by surprise and I think Quartz is a master at doing that & many start with Quartz due too it’s availability price wise and for the fact you can get some really big pieces for fair prices and there’s too many choices when then including other members like Amethyst 🤷🏽‍♂️. Especially with all the forms and types and just changes the locality adds aswell. A natural sceptre formation , that was borderline perfection was my first real lusty specimen I obtained early on and it caught me so of guard because of how perfectly straight all faces and edges are…. We all know this , as it’s why we’re here but there’s really no greater artist than nature it’s self 💎 and it’s so cool how breathless nature can leave you .

again im interested in sponsoring you guys!

Thanks for passing down the knowledge, always great to learn how they’re colored! Cognac and Oro Verde are two amazing hues in my collection that would be nice to see on here at some point

I like rose quartz. I have a bunch of faceted gems. Looking to get some crystal specimens next.

I was waiting for this for so long

Very cool and timeless

Love you guys!!! Thankyou

Prasiolite, is natural and can all so be found in Thunder Bay Canada

Still hoping for an unboxing of a good parti sapphire one day... Love this channel, and all your incredibly engaging hosts

Thanks for another awesome video

All of those quartz gemstones are very unique and pretty.😯😀💎 It's interesting👩‍🏫 to know where they come from. My favorites are the rose quartz💖 and amethyst💜, which I have no idea some are green💚 also. Nice video.😊💎

Blue quarts, im out hunting for it in a location near me atm :-)

So is all green amethyst heat treated.

Awesome video sweet knowledge beautiful stones it is amazing how people think rocks can heal them or texture skin and so on awesome thank you. Herkimen diamond which is quartz

I just discovered Prasiolite!!

Quartz is awesome

All very cool but I didn’t see the pink amethyst that is very unique

I would love to see Hedenbergite Quartz😍 I have a piece that looks like a Christmas tree 🎄 but I bought it online and I'm not sure it is 100% natural😅

Would you have any info on how Pecos Diamonds Quartz crystals formed?

Thanks ! You helped me id a crystal I inherited from my Grandmother. I would LOVE to hear about another one I have: Pink Amethyst .. Also , I accidently left my Rose Quarts out in the sun and it faded .Is there anything I can do to revitalize it's color ? Thanks again. You guys inspire me!

Dididodemoiterite would make a good band name.. Rock band of course..

i.... just bought a natural ametrine without knowing its back story O.o

You can use white quartz for engagement rings

So my question is when you heat up amethyst, what will differ between making it turn green or into citrine? Or is it mineral/chemical compounds?

Heyoo, love this channel. Is lavender rose quartz heat treated or just grown in another area. Thankyou

@gems

Lavender quartz is found in nature, mined in Brazil and Madagascar, but the production of lavender quartz is less than 1% of Rose Quartz production. Traditionally, Lavender and Rose Quartz do not need to be heated. But they often can be polished with colored wax. As such, they should be disclosed as dyed.

Heyoo beautifulz, I recently got 2 pieces, of Mongolian quartz septers. They are light ice pink. What's the difference in these Mongolian quartz if you have any info please? Much gemrock love....

Cool! Thank you for featuring the quartz family. I got my 20 something carat Prasiolite several months back and I was kinda skeptical when I was told by the gem dealer that it is called “green amethyst”. Quick question. Is there any way to tell if the prasiolite is “untreated”, heated or with COBALT? I hope you can also feature the Garnet family. Coming from the experts like you guys would be very big help. (Specifically Pyrope vs. Almandine/ Hessonite vs. Spessartite) Thank you sooo much..

Thanks for watching! We'll definitely do something with garnet in the future! In terms of distinguishing between prasiolite that is natural vs. heated vs. irradiated with cobalt…there isn’t a lot of research in this area, since the testing is quite expensive for something as affordable as quartz. As we covered in the video, natural prasiolite is usually of a darker, browner shade of green. It’s also so rare that you’re probably best off assuming your stone is treated, unless you have compelling evidence otherwise. In terms of whether it was heat treated or irradiated with cobalt… irradiated prasiolite can be paler in color and can lose its color if it is heated above 150 degrees Celsius (302 degrees Fahrenheit). But we would not recommend this test.

How can one tell the difference between topazes and quartz? And citrine and smoky quartz vs. golden topaz and smoky topaz?

@gems

2 жыл бұрын

There are several simple gem tests, using tools like the polariscope and refractometer that can determine the differences very effectively. But, if you don't have access to these, a simple heft test can be very helpful. Topaz has a significantly higher specific gravity than quartz, and so a piece of topaz should feel heavier when weighed in your hand compared to a similarly sized piece of quartz.

If y'all can get ahold of it I'd like for y'all to do Virginia blue quartz which I have gem quality specimens I can send that I have only found in one 2 mile location here in VA and it's almost an opalescent blue and very translucent. It's blue when you hold it down at eye level but turns a very orange and amber color when light is behind it!!! 💙💎

What about mango quartz?

When I went into my job and was like look I got fired from it

I have a piece and i don't really know much about it. Please get back to me thanks

I would love to know how crystals formed underground in hot water Springs. Well at least the theory.

I understood things about Steven Universe with this video xd

Is there such a thing as black amethyst?

@gems

2 жыл бұрын

Amethyst is the purple form of quartz, so "black amethyst" would essentially be a black quartz like the morion or smoky quartz we featured in the video. Important to note, even though it can be referred to as "green amethyst", that's not the official name of prasiolite. The only official form of amethyst is purple.

Hi everyone on JTV channel in this video U spoke about green amethyst which is something new,in Quartz fly if violet/purple it's amethyst,if yellow/orange then Citrine if pink then rose Quartz so green should have another name.also what is this unbox stuff I don't understand,U should Just have samples and explain.please please communicate on whatsapp it's easier for me #+91 9819868381... Thanks,bye Jeff

So, why the Gemologists shine more than the gems?

I'm really appreciating the lack of BS and the inclusion of real science. I love these pretty rocks and the stories of how we believe they are formed but c'mon, it's not magic.

Every time I hear Rose Quartz, I think of Steven Universe.

Purple /and/ green amethyst?? *MOVE. I’m aroace.* 😂💚🤍🖤💜🏳️‍🌈

With all of the perfectly clear and translucent with zero cracks Rose Quartz out there, even very cheap perfect STAR Rose Quartz, you managed to only get your hands on a few cracked specimens? That amazes me, considering perfect Star Rose Quartz can be bought at only $10-$20 per carat

Crystals for Clearing Mental Clutter: The first step to discovering your life’s purpose is to clear mental clutter. So often we find it hard to focus inward because we are stressed and distracted. Working with crystals like Selenite and Peridot to clear out mental clutter and stagnant energy helps us to create a clean slate in our journey of soul discovery. Try placing these crystals on your temples (if you’re lucky enough to have 2). Or, set it directly on your Third Eye Chakra. Leave the stones in place until you feel calm and centered and most of your mind chatter has stopped. It’s normal to have a few random thoughts pop in and out of your mind, so the aim here is more free space and quiet, not complete silence. We’re aiming for improvement, not perfection.

Um what was with that weird pervy question at the beginning?! Poor woman was there to talk about crystals not dating !!

I cringe a little when I hear/see "green amethyst". "green purple?" Lol. I mush prefer prasiolite. Thought I get that green amethyst is treated while true prasiolite is not. It's still kind of the same thing in my opinion. And again, green purple? Lol.

First!
