I actually laughed out loud! When they turn the lights down for that barrel gem then they used a super bright flashlight on it!

Great video, thank you.

Loved this episode. If there are gonna be more episodes like this I would love to see phosphophyllite featured. Such a gorgeous gem.

Okenite is like a deadly animal that will lure you in with its cuteness xD
Another cute spiky mineral I would love to see you unbox is Mesolite.

That fluorite/sphalerite/quartz specimen is insanely gorgeous! 😍

That iridescent sphalerite with fluorite is to die for. I’ve only seen about 2-3 of those on the market, ever. Wish I could get one!

Could we have an episode about white ball shaped zeolites? Okenite, Mesolite, Gyrolite and Scolecite and how to tell them apart.

That random moment when you find your old neighbor on a Youtube video about gemstones. Hey Robert it's Colin 😂

[ursaholdridge]

nobody ever talks about Antarcticite and if you guys have a sample I know myself and most of the lotl fandom would love to see it. nobody ever talks about it :/

I love selenite and desert rose selenite!

These gemstones are so pretty and yet they're so fragile too.😯😀💎 Some I know but others I didn't know or seen are very unique looking like the one with very tiny "hairs"/spikes. My favorite is the fluorite gemstone.😍🌌💎 Good video and thanks for sharing.🙂👍

I'm dying!! Schroedinger's mineral! <3 This is fantastic and what incredible specimens. I'm kicking myself now for not grabbing the vivianite I saw at a show. It's really just a lovely mineral.

yeahhh finally bringing crocoite on the show! i keep my small specimen in a sealed box and seeing you handle that with your bare hands made my heart skip an unhealthy amount of beats. it's just so fragile... and to top it off it's also light-sensitive and becomes Cr2O3 over time if kept under sunlight, turning it brown to black. in fact the sunflower painting made by van gogh was made with lead chromate and the shades got considerably more brown over time

Great presentation, beautiful material. Happy birthday!! I want to inform you that I have citrine mine, emerald crystals and phanecite or Phanekite

An additional refinement on the original color of the Maxixe beryl. It was a deep, vivid blue, closely resembling top gem blue tanzanite color or fine blue sapphire color.

Love the selenite. My friend mines selenite..It is such a beautiful piece

[xoxosnowflake]

I would love a video on gem stones sensitive to light!! I have two pieces of hackmanite and one glows brilliantly under uv & the other looks really dull…I’m curious if light has effected it or just lower quality?!

Okenite is like a, cute fluffy kitten, it lures you in with. Cuteness, then it turns nasty, and attacks, and the crystals can be hard to remove, from fingers

[milesnn]
