  • This video is about Fluorite. Where does it come from? Is it durable enough to where as jewelry, or is it just a collector's stone? Can you really get a color change fluorite? What colors will it be under different light sources?

    Thanks for showing my mineral licence in Chambers Cove when your talking about the St Lawrence Fluorite on the Burin Penn of Newfoundland... the Fluorite veins are in the pink granite just right of the photo; the vein I discovered was just over the ridge.

    I appreciate your education, your information re:gems. It's all fascinating to me. Always loved geology, gems, fossils. Mother Nature at her best!

      So true-never a dull moment. I still learn something new every time I visit a mine of any kind. Thanks for watching and I am glad you enjoy the lessons!

    Stones like Kyanite and Iolite are soft stones and you cant use metal on it like tweezers and such. Love the video keep up the great work. :)

    Brilliant class on Fluorite, Paul! Thank you so much, once again for helping me/us all learn about one of my personal favourite stones... it is truly so colourful! Thank you for always bringing such an entertaining and clear, easy to learn and absorb knowledge of my favourite topics, stones... :) Have a terrific rest of your weekend.

      Thank you so much, Penny. I obviously enjoy the subject matter and also love to make it simple to understand. I think some people get intimidated with gemstones and I love to strip away the mystery and make it approachable. By the way I suspect you are also from the UK (like the previous subscriber). The signature words that tip me off: Brilliant; the spelling of Favourite, and the spelling of Colourful! We heathens in the USA took your language and ignored the spelling (I joke about that in my first book). Sorry about that! Glad you enjoy the lessons!

      I totally agree. Really pretty colors, but better in specimens than in jewelery

    Thank you Paul, I have a Blue John pendant from Derbyshire but did not appreciate the connection with fluorite until watching this weeks lesson, would you be able to include Aqua aura sometime in the future please, as in, is it a real gem or man made, thank you so much really look forward to watching each week from here in the uk

    • @pauldeasygemstones
      @pauldeasygemstones  Před 3 lety +1

      My pleasure, Violet. I am glad you are enjoying the lessons. As for Aqua Aura: It is a genuine gem. It is not man made or laboratory created. However, it is treated by man. It is genuine quartz that is treated with irradiation in the presence of gold to create that aquamarine blue color. By the way, I spent about 6 weeks in the UK about 20 years ago working with QVC UK. Had a great time and did my share of traveling the neighborhood on my days off: Edinburgh (played at the old course), Ireland (my heritage-kissed the blarney stone). York (saw the William Wallace statue), and Paris.The typical American Tourist-seeing all of these places on a 2 or 3 day trip.

    Do we have a video about tourmaline?

    • @pauldeasygemstones
      @pauldeasygemstones  Před 3 lety +2

      Not yet we don’t, but I plan on doing one in the future. Your question is very appropriate on the heels of the Fluorite lesson. Tourmaline, much like fluorite, comes in many varied colors! Thank you so much for watching the lessons!
