Thank you so much for this video! Your production quality is fantastic, and I truly appreciate the effort you put into making it. Keep up the great work-I genuinely enjoy your content, and your knack for this shines through!
The sample visible on the left at 1:53 when striations are being discussed actually shows exsolution lamellae (intergrowths of two feldspars together), not striations due to twinning.
+Kec103 You're absolutely right. Guess I should have been more explicit that Plag has striations due to twinning whereas K-spar is streaked with exsolution lamellae due to compositional variations. Thanks for the correction and clarification.
I'm a rock climber on Long Island NY. We only have glacial deposits. Your videos are helping me understand what these boulders are made up of. Thank you
I really like your series of videos! It's a great resource. Geology needs some good images and videos, since there are a lot of rocks and visualizing them is always helpful.

Hey.. I don't speak Inglis. Tengo un mineral marrón que encontré en una mina de cuarzos.. es igual al que muestra aquí.. no entiendo lo que dice usted.. si me responde por favor en español! Thanks You!
I come across a lot of quartz when walking in the hills and mountains - They are awesome - yet no value, unless one finds gold or silver and creates/make a quartz ring! Great blog - many thanks!
So, this is when somebody usually comments about how 7 years later at midnight is when algorithm really pulls it together…except I actually spent today collecting feldspar. I’m just going to mount tiny metal trees on it because it’s pretty but I’m delighted with this surprise opportunity to actually learn something about one of the minerals that I use for my craftworks. Thanks!
I got white and red kinds, both mixed with smoky quartz in regular chevron patterns of varying sizes, to make what the local rockhounds call “graphic granite”. It looks kinda like leopard-print feldspar.
All of the information about what causes the different colors in quartz is wrong! Smokey quartz is cause by radiation plus aluminum, NOT carbon. Rose quartz is caused by borosilicate, NOT iron. Amethyst is cause by radiation plus iron, NOT titanium.
Wow, to go completely off topic....was that Dinosaur Coloring Book in the background an original Troubadour Press printing? Neat, if so. Also thanks for the educational video. Much love!
Thanks, and you're right. I also need to correct the smoky quartz coloring. I sped through that section and got sloppy. If I ever get the time, I will go back through these videos and make corrections. For now I have to live with them.
❤ hola soy de Guatemala. Fíjate que tengo mucha curiosidad por los cristales y piedras, pero tengo una roca que mide aproximadamente 15 o 20 centímetros de largo y más o menos eso por alto. L o único que no se qué es porque tiene cáscara y por dentro tiene como brillantes pequeños u es de color entre negro y gris se ve como el cielo de noche con estrellas es muy duro me atrevo a decirle que más duro de 7. En la escala. De mosh. Quisiera abusar de usted para ver si me puede ayudar a mi en lo personal me da el pensar que es jade galáctico porque tiene una línea sobre encima como si la hubieran querido partir con fricción porque parece ser una piedra que querrían haber cortado nuestros antepasados, por la línea que llevaban para cortarla. La encontré cerca de donde e encontrado algunos objetos prehispanicos.Porfabor ayúdeme a saber que puede ser le puedo mandar foto. Tengo mucha curiosidad. Gracias.
Quartz is a mineral, quartzite is a metamorphic rock. A quartz crystal is just quartz usually, and often starts in igneous rock, but quartzite tends to have more impurities as it probably started as a sedimentary sandstone.
@@CVshorey sir.thanks for your reply.how we can identify physically both and which one is more hard from them or ability to resist the high temperature.

Hands down the best summary on the topics. I’m learning so much, please keep producing these fantastic videos!
Whoever is doing this. THANK YOU!!!!
This is really really good! Production, presentation, organization of this video is EXCELLENT. So glad I found it.
I hope you're a teacher/professor - your delivery is excellent. I just learned something because you made it interesting. Thank you.
Absolutely Useful , without preamble!
Holy smokes this is an excellent video with no crap and all good information!
man I love how you speak science but still provide the pictures to keep me focused
Awesome video! I found this real helpful in identifying a vein of what appears to be quarts in a local cliffside
Very helpful. Excellent supplemental material for the intro geology course I'm taking.

the series is super good

Bouldering isn't real climbing.
@@bobbypatton4903 I bet you're fun at parties.
Very well explain. Easy and simple to understand.
I don't speak inglis.. but i have mineral Brown like showing in minutes 5:13.. i want to now wats is this?.. somebody tell me please.. thanks You!.
Tengo un mineral como él que muestra al minuto 05:13.. alguien me diga que es? Y si tiene algún valor? por favor!

Llanite that occurs (so far) only near Llano, TX.
Excellent! I know I’m 3 years behind but good video.
If I did'nt see this video I would've failed my project
Really nice presentation
These videos are very helpful. Thank you.

@@tinymetaltrees I love graphic granite, and I'd love to see your artwork.

You are correct. I rushed to production on this one and hope to fix this if I ever have time for 2.0. Thanks for posting the correction here.
I'm going to pick up a rock someday and go "Ah, Feldspar, Blah blah blah blah" and someone is going to wonder why they thought I was simply a pothead.
Man i wish i could make video like this 😅 awesome work buddy!!!!
Wow, to go completely off topic....was that Dinosaur Coloring Book in the background an original Troubadour Press printing? Neat, if so.
Also thanks for the educational video. Much love!
Why yes, it is Troubadour Press out of San Francisco. Illustration by Winston Tong.
Great and very helpful video! I learned a lot. I believe at 5:46 you meant amethyst quartz's color comes from iron, Very useful presentation.

Very educational. Thank you very much.
Excellent Explanation !!! Thank you !
nicely done
Still watching still learning !
Nice video which video editor did you use?
I use Adobe Production Premium
Very informative. Thanks
Educational and also interesting!
Where can i buy a barrel of each concentrated powder aluminosilicates CV?
Volcanic ash is concentrated aluminosilicate.
silicone onions ? ) ? 6:13+?
I found a feldspar that was 5.4 inch long and 4.1 wide
I find those regularly in my area in my gold prospecting activities
Where did you find all those minerals?
Trips, personal collection, and access to the complete collection of our Geology Museum.
I have so many questions, but for whatever reason, cannot send messages through UA-cam. Have you other contact info or a website? Thank you!
Ab Irato my email is cshorey@mines.edu. Feel free to send questions there.
Quartz is my favorite!
GREAT INFO! GRACIAS'
Eres demasiado bueno. De nada.
Could anybody explain the difference between quartz and quartzite in simple way.
Quartz is a mineral, quartzite is a metamorphic rock. A quartz crystal is just quartz usually, and often starts in igneous rock, but quartzite tends to have more impurities as it probably started as a sedimentary sandstone.
@@CVshorey sir.thanks for your reply.how we can identify physically both and which one is more hard from them or ability to resist the high temperature.
Nazam Hussain I will refer you to episode 42 on non-foliated metamorphic rocks. ua-cam.com/video/Rt1LSsIitsc/v-deo.html
this is a great video!
what about blue feldspar. i have numerous specimens of blue feldspar. and it has 3 cleavage plains.
See episode on physical properties and cleavage.
