Thank you, excellent explanation. Just ordered a spectroscope so will be ready to try it when it arrives. 🌈

Thank you very much, Claire! You made it easy to understand a complicated procedure.

She gives such an amazing explanation. JTV, Hate off to you guys, you people always posting a worthy videos. Time worth watching. Thank you so much guys.

I love, love, LOVE material identification methods and this video was a whole lot of fun to watch. Thanks, Claire!🌈

Thank you Clair for the superb information!!! I enjoyed my optical mineralogy classes!!! Thank you Natalie & staff for an excellent video!!! 👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💎💗💛💚💙💜💟🌈🙋

I love how excited she got seeing the orange line on the ruby 😆 This is pretty cool!

Great video. Nice tip with the setting the stone and capture all the light. Thank you.

Thank you, Claire for teaching me something new about how to test a gem stone. 💖😊🇨🇦🌈💖👏

Thank you. So glad you mentioned theSisk books. They are awesome.

🌈 Thank you for this video. It explained the spectroscope much better than I received in my GIA lab class. The part about the dust was exceptionally helpful as I don’t recall them saying anything about that.

🌈 Thank you Clair ! You are a great teacher. I feel I now understand the principles and use of the spectroscope much better than before. Thank again.

Thank you Claire! Very informative.

Looks like the Zelco Long Reach Flexible Flashlight, no longer in production :(

What reference book is Claire using

Could i email a picture of my latest jtv oldstock parcel to ask what i probably have ? I know what a couple are and a few maybe...thankyou for posting this video. I am getting a dychroscope and spectroscope soon and chelsee filter asap.

💟🌈🙋 A great and thorough explanation.Thank You!

The definition of Absorption Spectra/ Spectrum can be further simplified & kindly keep both eyes open while working with the Gemological Instruments. 💎🔬🌈

tank you

Twaskyou for the information My dear. Blessings

Why not just use the high power fiber-optic light source, I'm sure it has an infra-red absorber so it won't heat the stones?

🌈thank you.

Beautiful people!

🌈Thanks for the awesome video. I kind of wonder what the other two gems were. Were they both just synthetics?

One was red glass, and the other was garnet!

2:30 Please, if you need to show long piece of text, do not scroll it around. It's hard to read while moving + video compression artefacts mess the text quality a lot. Static image of text is just fine.

🌈Thanks 👍🏻

Thanks Claire!! 🌈🌈

Claire has such a soothing voice! She should be featured again soon!

👍

🌈🌈🌈 this was great. I am learning so much :)

3:18 no longer correct... the light source needs to be full spectrum most modern flashlights are leds they make a fake "white" light thats really three narrow bands of color that still activate the cones and rods in our eyes. Leds are missing most of the visible spectrum and if that spectrum falls on something you are looking for it makes a fake positive . Old incandescent flashlights dont have this issue

Excellent observation, Edd. Claire details the need for full spectrum lighting and the pitfalls of using LED lighting starting at 6:00.

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!!

damn it and cool

So if this method can't tell you if the gemstone is natural or synthetic what is the purpose of using any of these instruments!?! I mean did anyone else catch This this is not going to tell you if the gym is real or fake so why then I want to know why I really do...!?

Synthetic is not "fake" gem, synthetic is lab made, but chemically identical to the natural mined gem, meaning they have the same chemical composition and properties, they are not fake gems, just made in a lab instead of mined. Fakes are simulants, and usually are not at all chemically similar to the real gem they are imitating, nor do they have the same proporties, can often be made of glass or other crystals unrelated to the gem it is imitating. So a synthetic corundum, is identical to natural corundum and the spectroscope will confirm this, whereas let's say a diamond and a cubic zirconia will not look the same under a spectroscope because they are not the same material.
