    I'm a goat farmer and with a blithe disregard for the fact that I'm in Ireland not Ethiopia, I'm going opal hunting on my land tomorrow! Loved this collection of stones.

    BTW Nice to see the ponytail gone. You and Rob are smart, cool and look great without the pseudo-hipster hair.

    Lovely lazurite specimen 👍
    Tis a pity that the euclase didn't display the iconic light blue colour it's so often prized for, having said that, it would still be nice to pick up a specimen with some decent inclusions for microscopic analysis. Very tempting...😉

  • @ZaDussault

    Tom really feels like a gem seller. He present gemstones to sell them tu us. He might be very good at it, but I think it gives a cold impression in videos instead of just gem passion and love, it's a bit more calculating. I don't hate it, I just feel more like watching infomercials than gemstone content

    • @aprilmeowmeow
      @aprilmeowmeow 5 місяців тому

      I agree! It doesn't feel like a hobby when he's presenting things for some reason lol

    • @DodgyPigeon
      @DodgyPigeon 5 місяців тому

      I disagree with your assessment that Tom gives a cold impression. Having watched his JTV Extra shows or guest spots with show hosts, his passion for gems is unmistakably genuine and candid. Just a reminder: these videos are produced by a BUSINESS whose intention is to SELL things.

  • @juliet1312

    What wavelength of UV light do you use to see the florescence with ruby (etc.)? Or is it any UV light?

    • @gems
      @gems  5 місяців тому +1

      We typically show our gems in longwave UV light, which is 315-400nm. That is what we used here. More gems will show fluorescence in shortwave UV, but it is dangerous to look directly at, so we rarely use it for our videos.
