    There is rhodochrosite in Peru too, a lot, although there is very little in crystal shape, they usually come in little flowers and are clear pink.

    Rhodochrosite is the national gemstone of Argentina. So this Thursday, could you make a video discussing about many different varieties of Opal? There are over 20 varieties of Opal from what I've heard on the website, Mindat. Some varieties of Opal are quite rare.
    Prase Opal is a variety of Opal with traces a Nickel or Garneirite Laterites. Isopyre is a impure very dark red variety of Opal. Yowah Nut is a variety of Boulder Opal in which Opal forms in concretions of Sandstone and only comes from the Yowah Opal Field in Queensland, Austrailia.

      NAK I have seen several types of Opal and think it might go over 20 if you count Opalizied Pet. Wood and Potch is Opal also even if it is not gemmie. I have 12 different types of Opal 6 from the US but my Australian Yowahs 2pcs, Boulder Opals 4, Lightning Ridge has 3 Black, Dark, Crystal, plus western Australia has a new volcanic crystal Opal that is a yellow orange, aslo Andamooka Opals White Opals, then Hydrophane Ethiopian Opals 6pcs, Mexico has a few different types of Opal. So many Opals and varieties of host minerals and plants to form in. I love Opal and would love them to do a show of varieties of Opals

    Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Rhodochrocite is my favorite gemstone. I've been in love with it since I first saw an exhibit from the Sweet Home mine in the Denver Museum of Natural History! To me... it's the color of watermelon flesh. Too bad it's Mohs scale is so low. Thank you for celebrating the beauty of Rhodies! ❤

    Ive never seen a rhodochrosite gem before, only stones, the opaque bacon stuff (heck i have one). And I've seen loads of bacon-type rhodochrosite in jewellery (lol can that be the official name?) even rings. Surprised me to learn they're so fragile

    • @kellyharper367
      @kellyharper367 Год назад

      Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Aren't you glad you found it...If you're in the US...Denver Museum of Natural History always have lovely exhibit of crystal Rhodies. To fragile for rings but great for earrings, necklaces, tie tacks, but I love it as specimens. Makes my heart dance!

    I thought there were some Rhodochrosite form Afghanistan, too? Could be wrong, just had a few friends form overseas comment about seeing some there but it being landlocked.
    Also, how close is Rhodonite to Rhodochrosite?

    Just like to say It is used in jewelry. I just had two nice crystals of Rhodochrosite cut and they look amazing delicate yes but for collectors much rarer than the "Bacon", or Stripped Rhodochrosite.

    @siccosikkens3354 2 года назад

    Hi there I have a piece that I found in a river in Ireland and since I picked up a bit of opal cutting recently I tried to cut it in a heart piece, but it's harder than quarts, it is dark blue to look at but hold in to the light it turns green and it is transparent any idea. (I like your show).
