Fancy sapphire are very beautiful and affordable ,I think is important that are natural gem even if we find second quality, ( gem with inclusions or not having intens colours, or being milky how they say) I m a person who wear and admire gemstones, e even if I can't afford hight quality, important is to wear something natural 🤗😇.I appreciate a lot people who work so hard in this mines

Well hey! This was a surprisingly great documentary. It was very informative about the stone itself and had lots of interesting info about the different religions/cultures and such.
Top notch 👌

Love watching your documentarys.
Thankyou for sharing them.
Such hard work and dedication! Truly exceptional culture! Thanks for sharing this ❤️
Very interesting. I don't know if I ever heard of moonstones before this.

Me & my SO live near the Rockies & last year whilst exploring & pickin amongst a rivers flow I found a beautiful Moonstone however at the time I didn’t realize what I had, just another unique white stone that I usually gravitate toward, nothin particularly stunning but it had obviously stuck out 2 me 4 1 reason or another & several months later my SO bought his 1st ever tumblr & eagerly went through some of our stone collections & happened 2 pick it out 4 1 of the 1st batches 2 tumble. B4 he polished this batch we took a look 2 C the unpolished results & were stunned by it’s beauty, it paled the other “rocks” as it seemed 2 glow & since then I haven’t allowed it 2 B polished cuz I don’t C anything could improve upon it’s perfection, truly glorious, I’m lucky it chose us & wish we had logged that batches location so we could go back
Beautiful video! thanks for creating such amazing content!
I have made many Silver rings set with Ceylon moonstones. In Ontario, Canada, I have found clear feldspar that I have polished into cabachons. They have the same chatoyancy as Ceylon moonstones, but without any color.
Nostalgic journey of gem stones...
Lovely...
Memories to cherish.
@Max K how awful 😢 and rude you be
MAX K....YOU ARE WITH OUT A DOUBT VERY IGNORANT TO OTHER LANGUAGES AND CULTURE...SHAME ON YOU !
I met my future wife In Malaysia back in 1969. I was then in the British army and before I returned to the UK for my discharge I bought my then-girlfriend a Moonstone set. A full suite. necklace earrings and broach. She still has this set today The stones are perfect and a beautiful translucent blue, the settings have become tarnished and I often wonder if the stones themselves could be fakes.
😂❤God bless to the young Boy he lost his father from the evidence
Respect to the all hard working miners in the world
Thank you so much for your videos.
Great respect and love for u all , Muslim , boudhist and hindous , juif and Christian .
😘😍👍🙏Thank you very much for yours lovely important program so lovely good job and good luck too I love it so much beautiful stories Well-done God bless ❤️💋
I don't usually subscribe to channels but your documentaries are exceptional so thank you I am now some scribed
Thank you for sharing
I will never look at my moonstones in the same way. They are among my favorite gemstones. I love working with them and with Labradorite. In all forms and colors.
@Smileyrie James I bought a strand of coals for about 60 dollars. Used them sparingly with pearls. Gorgeous
Most excellent presentation.
This series is the best thing and I just wish there was one about US Turquoise and gems in the southwest
Yes, hopefully he does some about North American gemstones. Would be neat if he did one about the various opals found from Honduras to Oregon!
❤ Very nice and good vidio from CZcams program Thank you very much God bless
Magnifique documentaire , qu’elle chance et privilège de voyager dans de défirent pays et de vivre , partager et apprécier des moments de dangers parfois , de découverte et de joie avec déférentes populations du monde .
Another really well-done story. Thank you.
Hi
Hello Voillot, I am into gem mining too in the South/East of Sri Lanka... It's a mine located close to the borders of Yala National Park... The area is pretty rich in a variety of precious stones... Maybe you might be interested...
I enjoy every Patrick's documentary about gemstones. I wonder when the trips that he made to each of the countries took place. Was it at approximately the same time when the video was uploaded on youtube, or was it much earlier. Not easy to say.
I hope those people are doing okay after what happened to their country.
Thanks for documenting and sharing this, it's amazing footage. What a beautiful country.
I am fascinated! With your video Patrick thank you!
Omg, Rathnapura is my home town but It has changed alot now, technology
I LEARN SO MUCH TODAY..NOW I WANT A MOON STONE..
Come srilanka i have moonstone
I can also supply moonstone come srilanka
This documentary is about my home city. It is the fames city for the gems.
Is still have this town
beautiful country
Kindly can you please contact me
@@niazali8231 do you like moonstone from srilanka ?
@@Soysa421 Yes.
lovely documentary thank you for this. it's good to see the chain of events for a stone.
Como siempre! un documental fabuloso que explica porqué tiene tan alto costo esta fabulosa gema. Gracias!
And you have to wonder, does that elephant know it’s carrying the tooth of Buddha? Amazing documentaries every time on so many levels, thanks a ton! Just found amazing moonstone in central Colorado, what a blessing
Great documentary! Really enjoyed it 😊
Proud to be Sri Lankan🥰

AS YOU SHOULD BE.😉❤
Hi
Bullist
I would love to visit srilanka as early as possible after the lockdown is lifted
Their lifestyle is so surreal! Great, fascinating and awesome documentary!!!
Beautiful documentary incredible informative. Much love and respect to all the miner's unearthing God's wonders.
the audio quality of this episode is great..... some of the others are not so great....... the post production company should work harder to match the quality of audio to the EXCELLENT video and storyline ...... even with the fluctuating audio quality, i still ENJOY each episode !!!!!!!
Thank you for uploading this! I appreciate it.
I've seen these mines and been in one, I'll be honest with you it's not fun being in there. It's hot , fills up with water fast, ladders can be slippery.
Excellent video, very informative and it was educational too.
The best gems I've seen are usually marked "certified no heat" AGI. usually rubies & others.
Thank u for this documentary, I learned much about moonstone 😍
Excellent documentary!
A very professional video and complete production.
Please, mr. Voillot, the only thing that is missing is that you use your knowledge to talk to us about the microscopic inclusions.
I am sure that good businessmen like you would be happy by teaching people how to distinguish between the real and the fake stones.
The good business practices protect decent dealers like you and puts the clients away from the bad ones.
Think about it, I beg you.
Giving knowledge to your clients and admirers would make the work even easier to you and would help all honest dealers.
It is about time for all us to join forces against scammers and impose the fair trade, according to gemological standards.
The analysis and the study of microscopic gemological inclusions may aid all of us and protect the gem trade from those that do not have the same moral values that we already have.
Thank you.
I second that! I go to web sites and you can tell the stone is fake, the newest is fake names that sound like the stone or they put 2 names together. After this documentary I wonder if my moonstones are fake
Thank you so much.
I had a beautiful unmounted moonstone for years in a box until I gave it to a friend who had a pendant made from it. It was later stolen in a burglary and then she sent me a beautiful old moonstone necklace with about ten stones which I wear.
Stones are all around in the island of serendib
Excellent documentary❤
Very informative:)
Make me want to travel to Sri Lanka just to experience that gem stone healing because I much believe in nature healing and ayuverdic healing.
You're pretty cute, too bad you said all that..
Come to srilanka 0094+071 731 89 82...
Gemstone therapie is quackery, but a placebo effect might do the job. Or try voodoo.
Pl vist sri lanka.i can hep u madam .im rathnpura ..if u wont gems ...
Drinking game:
Every time the word "Moonstone" is heard, you take a sip
No use a fork
I bought moonshine bracelet years ago in the mountains , they are clear see through I don’t even know if they are rare now ?
Very educational. Thanks.
Yes I want a personalized jewelry for me. That would be so precious
Hi, i am prasad from srilanka do you like moonstone or blue sapphires i can arrange (0094+071 7318082 ) my whats app number...
Yes, they are indeed very hard workers
Wow EPIC documentary🔥👌
My takeaway is don't touch a finished gemstone with a 10 ft. pole unless you're an expert.
very good
It seems this documentary is older than 20 years.
My favorite gem. Any direction on how we can make purchases?
Come to sri lanka u can get it
I can send you moonstone brother...
Call me on +94717914541 I'm a merchant in Sri lanka
Sri Lanka est le petit royaume de certaines pierres précieuses et semi précieuses .
I want to invite you to Turkey for a documentary about "Oltu Taşı" It is black amber.
Very nice stone 👌👌💍
.muy buen documentario
Nice documentary
29:09 the Sri Lankan Rick James.
_”I’m rick james bitch !!”_
Je pense que la prière recharge les pierres d’énergie positive et les rende encore plus belles , mystérieuses et fascinantes .
I like to visit sri lanka
Great Video! Thank you!
That's crazy they travel 740 km which is 459.815 miles by a cheap little boat.
Hi! I'm from Sri lanka
Incrível lindo demais parabéns amigo Deus abençoe você é sua família
Love the moonstone in the western world moonstone known as the stone of the devils nail.
Boa noite amigo gostei muito da pedras lindas demais parabéns
I've enjoyed your original video! TYVM!
Good information
Good job
Indeed, moon stones.
if you have jewelry for someone in mind hold on to it until you see them don't change who it's for !
Nice video
we test gems any where
Nice
It's crazy how they lie to the tourist on the streets. They looked him straight in the eyes and lied to his face
like its their job! Wow! There are always going to be," those people" one who ruins it for everyone! Scandalous, and shady.
Would you like to be a partner of gemstone mine in srilanka...?
I seen this procession near queen's hotel kandy
Wow! Beautifully done!
I very much enjoyed this video. But with exception for the religious segments, I was truly perplexed at the narrator's announcement of each person's faith. It seemed as relevant as their age, which remained private by comparison.
Singing Bananas
AND YOUR POINT??? KINDA DISRESPECTFUL
THE TWO GO HAND IN HAND I AM A BELIEVER NOT A BAPTIST. I DONT FEEL THE NEED TO INSULT BECAUSE OF RELIGON I WISH THE PEOPLE WOULD WAKE UP
.BUT THATS ME IF GIVES THEM HOPE KEEPS IT ALIVE FOR US ALL BELIEVER OR NONBELIEVERS. SMH
52 minute and 28 second ad is annoying as hell - that is what the 'SHOW MORE' is for.
Stephen Meyer
well aint you SPECIAL
36:27 They should just put the basket under the running water behind them.
Amazingly awesome
Very interesting documentary... not sure about the music tho! 😉
there must be a better way to get the gemstones out, i am sure duplex jigs could be calibrated to recover them.
Try Ebay?
What happened to you we didn't get any videos since a year
why u no like its like u can get free gems but its worth a trip but make sure u bring a pillow case.
Let me know when u plan to go..u will pay my way ..so I get free stones ..yes ..do I need to get shots .. immunization shots .. do I need bring weapon for protection..(.I'm DEA ) this place is not my assignment lol 😀😁 lol😀 😁 I like the Beautiful 😍 🤗 jewerly ❣️💞 💟
The moon carved one amazing
They are beautiful, but are they expensive?
Moonstone has cloudy or milky appearnce if cut in cabochon.
Chaddy Ormillo cool story
Only experienced knows, how do you know?
