    The grass blade selenite is breathtaking, wow! The tiger iron is also a favorite

    I loved the selenite grass. Now I'm going to be on the lookout for that. Also, I will be pondering the "how to ensure Selenite grass arrives home in one piece" conundrum. That is going to be a fun little engineering problem.

    Absolutely amazed by the Arrow Heads and the Tiger Iron. Rebecca was luck to be gifted some Fordite, especially as the original Fordite is quite rare these days. Thanks Guys, great specimens. 😀👍

    I feel heard when you spoke with the first guest about people asking what you do with them & you tell them you just stare at them 😂 my favorite part of the day is looking at my rocks. My family just doesn't understand. So glad to have found this channel!

      @@MrMadasfire I was actually doing that when I got the notification on this 🤣 my husband asked me once, so do you pull them out every night? Yes. Not every one every night, no, but yes. Every time little hands aren't around me I'm probably looking at my collection 🤣

    I found Bowens Reactions Series thanks to a local geology professor, and I’ve been fascinated with it since!! Loved this episode, and I hope we’re able to see more like it soon! Super awesome being able to see collectors marvel over their favorite pieces.

    During my geology field camp, we found banded iron formation rocks in an area in the mountains outside of Ennis, MT. I loved listening to Caleb! I got my geology degree from MSU Bozeman and am MT born and raised. Loved the Stillwater Layer Mafic Intrusion shoutout! I'm a science teacher now and and my students love watching your videos!

    My favorite blue gemstone is Lapis Lazuli, I just bought a great lapis ring with a large clean deep blue stone but it’s a bit softer and degases if it gets wet. Love the ring.

    That green selenite is BEAUTIFUL!! I need to get green selenite for the properties it has. Do you have a link to where I could get one?? The info of the Tiger iron was amazing & your "Cookie Monster" agate is sooo cute!!!

  • @bonblue4993
    @bonblue4993 2 роки тому +2

    I am really surprised that you didn't inform us of what the minerals are that make the Selenites green! Also, where did she find the arrowheads {Where is Logan Country? In what state?) the Aquamarine ring is pretty beautiful!

    • @MrMadasfire
      @MrMadasfire 2 роки тому +1

      The best guess as to the Selenite coloring agent is Herbertsmithsonite

    I would love an episode on identifying age of minerals , that would be cool . I mean carbon dating somehow or how the processes actually work a lil bit. Obviously there is way too much to go over in an episode… I would imagine . Or not possibly, it seems like there’s mucho detective work involved . And Maybe a few different things with their ages compared

    Can we have an episode about bronzite vs tiger's eye vs pietersite please? 🥰

  • @clintonmorris8222
    @clintonmorris8222 2 роки тому +3

    There are banded iron formations in the Northern Cape of South Africa that contain Tigers eye banding. between that and Pietersite I'm not sure which is prettier 🤔

    You could sit it in a bowl of gelatin and let it to deal and then take it safely home. I don't know if it would hurt it if you put it in gelatin not red or greener blue or orange just plain ole gelatin. Or you could put it in a mud pack or hair or a helium balloon inside of a balloon! Would any of those work? Sorry, I really got into different ways you might be able to safely travel with your gemstone grass.One of these hopefully will . Let me know if you need more ideas. Lol!
