1:12. A mistake. Chilean librarian here; that is not an English word, "placer" does not come from anything being "placed" somewhere. According to both RAE (Real Academia de la Lengua Española, Royal Academy of the Spanish Language) and USGS (US Geological Survey), Placer is an Americanization of the Catalan word placel, which itself came from the Spanish word plaza, meaning “open space.” (usgs dot gov / news / science-snippet / earthword-placer)
I'm a miner on El Dorado bar (Missouri River Deposite) and I love how our unique stones are getting some recognition! There actually a few cases of the host material that have been found on the missouri. The host rock is called lamproite and some of them evem have little sapphires inbeded in them. The mystery is something we discussed pretty regularly ! Love your content!
I noticed that there is a peridot source in some of the rocks up by Ming bar on the north side of the Missouri River. I’ve been looking for sources for years. I think I still have your information in my wallet on a business card.Are you over Spokane Bar? There’s also some other information on stray diamonds being found in Montana. I believe that over the years the rock creek corundum was moved by mudflows from volcanos that blew up and eventually eroded the volcano down to an unrecognizable volcano. What’s going to solve this is by running soil samples further east and west of the alluvial deposits

Anyone else think this thumbnail is to appease Hank’s boyhood delight that he finally has facial hair in which to show off in a CZcams thumbnail? I’m honestly here for it, flaunt it Hank!
I've been with this channel for about 7-9 years, and I think this might be one of the first time I've heard Hank mention his wife. I felt real real love in his voice for a short time there. She must have taken really good care of him while he was sick.
Seems like this Hank is more sophisticated, the goofy is still there, but it’s fully under control now. I’m glad you didn’t do the dying thing, and hope things continue to go well
I bought my wife a Tanzanite ring. It is blue like sapphire but it is exclusive to Mt Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. The mineral profile is very unique and it needs a little heat processing to bring out the blue color.
They’re a beautiful stone. I bought my sister a Tanzanite pendant necklace because she adores that stone. Only thing I’d say is that they’re not quite BLUE blue like a Sapphire; they veer a little more into the blue-purple range. Pity they haven’t yet found a way to make synthetic Tanzanite.
Tanzanite is a very interesting mineral. It's a form of Zoisite (which is also cool, often found with Ruby corundum crystals) that is Trichroic. They try not to heat treat because it can reduce the trichroism effect. Sapphire is often heat treated, too, natural sapphires are a much lighter color than the deep blue "sapphire color" stones.
@@jelatinosa They haven’t figured out how to make synthetic Tanzanite yet, but there is a similar looking stone, synthetic Forsterite, that looks very similar.
Loved the video. enjoyed the editing quite a bit. This one felt a little more Crash Course-esque and I liked that. ( 3:42 , though, the country's name is Colombia, no letter u).
Seeing Hank now makes me remember how old I am now. I still remember him as fresh faced and young. Now he looks like a distinguished professor. Congrats on many years of success and may you and your teams have many more years to come!
lol. I'm also older than him. XD I've been following the Vlogbrothers for a long time, but for some reason it was in this video that it finally hit me how much of a difference he has from when I first saw him and how many years it's been. Distinguished professor is a good look on him, imo. XD
Oh, dear! That collective groan you heard at 3:42 was the entire nation of Colombia (and hispanohablantes everywhere) reacting to the misspelling of the name. You're usually accurate with spelling, SciShow folks. How did this howler slip through your editorial checks?
Amazing video! I'm a rock collector and I love hearing about unique types I've never heard of before. So bummed that the box is sold out only 1 day after the video posted.😢 😢
I love rocks. Wish I could afford to join up for this, but I don't even have a job at the moment. They certainly remembered to be awesome when they thought this one up! Rocks rule :)
Dang, Hank, you really got me with this one! Five minutes ago, I would have insisted that I didn’t need another subscription to anything. And now, I have another subscription, but this one may be my favorite! Thanks, SciShow and DFTBA, this is really awesome!
my grandpa owns a sapphire mine in the missouri river deposit so i grew up mining sapphires in that area. it’s super cool to see someone talk about it.
In Brazil there's this similar discussion between geologists about the protolith, or the original formation that brought up the diamonds in Diamantina-MG. The exploration in the region was mainly in paleoplacers, ancient river deposits from 1,2 billion years old
Hank's eyes in the premier thumbnail are the most welcomingly judgmental eyes I've ever seen. Tell us how to better ourselves, newly-haired Science Man ❤
My 8 year old has recently shown some interest in gems and stones, so I signed up for the box for him. I can't wait to surprise him with it and get to watch these videos together! If one of the boxes had a ruby (longshot, I know) he would be so excited. It's his birthstone.
I was around that age when I got really interested in collecting various different rocks and minerals - my 8yo self would have loved something like this! =D
@@buritomasterbirthstones are a very common thing (at least in the US) It's like zodiac or something. It's just a stone that's associated with the month you're born. It's just a fun little thing.
The same weird mystery applies to gold nuggets too, huge gold nuggets are always found in placers and they don’t find the largest nuggets in situ in a vein. So it seems like the gold flakes travel through the placers and somehow attach back together maybe through some ultramafic processes because they usually end up in ultramafic dirt downhill from the hard rock gold mines.
This was a joy! I’m from around the Utica, MT area, which used to have a Yogo sapphire mine! Thanks for recognizing that Sci Show isn’t the only treasure from the Treasure State! Love you guys ❤💎
This is my first time on this channel, so I am completely ignorant. I gather Hank was very, very ill. Are there any other details about that you are allowed to share?
love the new set, the grey jacket gave me a smile. Your gestures, and body postures seem to have a huge level of energy and enthusiasm. It looks like your recover is nearly complete?
A new series!! And you're looking well, Hank. I actually like the buzz cut on you. 😊 Sapphires have long been the representative gem for September birthdays (that's me). I knew there were a multitude of colourations but now I'm fully informed. Awesome, albeit slightly belated birthday gift. Thanks, Hank ❤
My mother was born and raised in Great Falls Montana so of course being born in September and knowing how unique the Montana Sapphires are always felt like something special. also Yogo Sapphires have a really unique color of blue that you would be hard pressed to find anywhere else.
I always wanted to be a geologist when I was a kid and have kept my humble rocks and minerals collection over the years - still in the original box I had when I was a youngster. I wanted to get in on the subscription to maybe pass onto my kids one day but it was sold out. Great idea though! will be signing up someday
I like the setting/vibe of this video better than the normal green-screen. Don't get me wrong, i like *any* SciShow vid, but this one hits different and I like it 👍👍
Hey guys.... greetings from Cali Colombia 🇨🇴... I'm a huge fan of all your channels.... keep up spreading knowledge.... ok bye... from Colombia 🇨🇴, not Columbia 👍🏾😅
The geology of the Montana area is absolutely fascinating! Glaciers floating to cause the Columbia Gorge and dump radon all over the west hills of Portland on the rush to the Pacific. Bubbling magma a mile below the surface with hot springs to scald you dead in seconds and colorful, boiling pools that reek of sulfer. Just a glimpse of what lies beneath Montana and Yellowstone. My dad was born in Boulder in 1921. His grandad and uncle had driven horse-drawn buses of tourists around to see the sights of Yellowstone after the park was opened in 1872. I have a fascination with opaque stones and have quite a variety in beaded bracelets in all sorts of stones and colors. Perhaps my love for opaque comes from my childhood trip thru Lewis and Clark Caverns in Three Forks, led by the head of the place, my cousin's husband. Seeing the colors inside the mountain impressed me. And I can afford them. I love color!
I have a couple baskets full of rocks my late son picked up thru his life. Each one something special. He found money on the ground more than any other human I've know, too. At seven, on a trip to see see great grandma on a trip with grandma and grandpa, he found a piece of the granite foundation to my dad's grandmother's house. Had my dad in tears. Ryan's been gone 7 yrs but Ryan's rocks are stull here with me.
How did Sci Show know about my massive rock collection in order to directly target my wallet this way???? 😂 Excited to have an opportunity to add some really cool pieces and learn more about rocks and minerals in general!
Hank, you look fantastic in this video. Even though you've been in recovery for some time now, it's great to see you bounce back as well as you do. Keep it up!
The "sapphire" on the watch at 2:25 is referring to the crystal (the transparent cover over the face, traditionally glass or acrylic), while the predominant use of sapphires in watches has been for jewels (the bearings of the gears inside)
I love montana sapphires so much! I've seen them come in so many unusual colors. brown, purple and orange, peach, hot pink, and even pink and green color changing! they're definitely one of my favorite stones to polish and collect :D
I work in a crystal store, and i want to cry. This is the type of information I need on so many crystals Super 7 Prasiolite Moonstones, and all semi-precious feldspars. They say some moonstones are colored by one chemical and other moonstones colored by another chemical (mineral? element?) and yet i see them form together seamlessly. For example, black moonstone and rainbow moonstone. Garnierite also?? Is green moonstone? crystal quartz. what is up with the formations known as being from their localities. Herkimer, tibetans, mongolian quartz What is up with satin spar selenite vs other selenite SO MUCH MORE :') So happy to have you here, Hank. I've been watching you and John for 12 years (I was 13)
Small correction, since this is a fact-based, science show. The country west of Venezuela is spelled Colombia in English. It is the official, accepted way of spelling that country’s name, according to authorities on the language and foreign relations. The Washington Post and the Miami Herald have written articles about this. It’s also in the Webster’s, Oxford, and Cambridge dictionaries, several encyclopediae, and in Federal documents such as “A Guide to the United States’ History of Recognition, Diplomatic, and Consular Relations, by Country, since 1776: Colombia”.
It's alot more fun to go mountain biking or skiing than groveling around for rocks if you live Montana. You'll still find some cool fossils and artifacts when exploring by default.

Eeeeee! I'm so happy to see rocks and minerals in one of ur shows! Let alone a rock subscription!
This background format is much more pleasant to the eye than the old, though classic green one. Thanks, hopefully this sticks.
Oh boy. Good thing this is a science channel and not a geography channel because Colombia was misspelled on the map. 😐🤔
Cant wait for you to be able to ship internationally (if that'll ever be an option!). Super excited to watch the videos anyhow! 🎉
also will patiently wait and hope for this! 🤞🏻
Another reason america is a great place to live :) Most things youtubers sell ship to here/ ship from here since most youtubers are American :)

Feels great to see Hank with hair growing back, love you buddy.
living for the 'unassuming highly accredited professor doing an interview for a niche documentary' look
Hank, I've been watching SciShow for years, huge fan and never comment... but gotta say, you look great!
All signed up for the rocks box! Life-long rouckhound gettin' old and sore, happy for rocks right to ma door!
This is the coolest subscription service I've ever laid my gaze
Oh Hank you look so much better with short clipped hair. What a difference !
I really like the vibe of Hank episodes, and also I enjoyed this episode being from Hank's office. I think I prefer it to the green screen background
I love your videos!
Keep up the good work.
Sending you positive thoughts all the time.
One of the coolest commercials I've ever seen.
So very tempted to start collecting rocks again...
2:22 I missheard that as "carrot" and thought "that's HUGE!" 😂
SciShow may have rocks, but Hank's the true gem.
I would subscribe to this box if I only had room to display these wonderful things. I love gemstones and fossils.
This makes me wish I hadn't given away my rock collection a couple decades ago.
Loved the content, and I have to add, you rock that look, man !
I gotta say, the stubble and buzzcut is a good look on you.
“Jesus Christ Hank, they’re not rocks. They’re minerals!” That other Hank.
