I love emeralds, green is my favorite color and I always imagined emeralds when I heard or thought of Colombia. That is.. until I came to know about the most gorgeous lion named Jupiter who, I pray, is still over there. More beautiful and magnificent than any emerald can ever be.
La pregunta es...? Con tantas riquezas como esmeraldas, oro, petróleo, café, coca y otros productos más... Colombia debería ser el país más próspero, rico, desarrollado, moderno y respetado de toda latinoamerica. ¿ Dónde están esos trillones de pesos? ¿Por qué no están en Colombia produciendo y generando empleo, empresas, industrias y bienestar a todos los colombianos? ¡ En vez de estar enriqueciendo otros países!
Por que los colombianos aun no hemos despertado cuando ese día llegue todos los colombianos viviremos en paz con la verdadera riqueza de nuestra colombia
All of which is very true. The foreign multinationals continue robbing the people of every country. Not least of which is their very own as well. The 1% of the 1% have no allegiance although they bribe our crooked politicians to employ our army as mercenaries to protect their stolen assets. Let us also not forget the thieves from each country who rob their own people blind and send their stolen money to offshore bank accounts so they can live in luxury in foreign countries.
Watching this was so heartbreaking. I had a beautiful emerald cut emerald my dad bought my mom in 1974 when we lived in Bogota. It was the size of the smallest of the 3 and my roommate stole it 2 years ago. My biggest regret. I still cry over it. Not fair.
This happened to me with a 100 yo family heirloom gold ring with two natural pearls and a diamond in the center. He was hooked on dope and probably pawned it for a few Euros. Pro tip: don't share a home with drug fiends.
Orgullo!!! No sabe el mundo tan oscuro que hay detras de todo este mercado. Los trabajadores en condiciones muy malas.indignas!!! Obvio que el oro y las esmeraldas,son tesoros preciosos. Pero deberian quedarse en su lugar
Watching this video in 2023. Will negotiations change if these countries adopt a cashless system? I thoroughly enjoyed the video. Old school way of doing business.

I agree, the voice-over doesn't do justice to character, I speak French so I noticed the difference when they got to Monaco - subtitles would be better!
informative and knowledgeable video ; loved every detail about it ; it is always good to be introduced to new knowledge.....i enjoyed it very much ....thank you very much
As some one who has worked in a variety of security scenarios, this Viedo is absolutely dangerous for the future of the dealers and the ones traveling with cash etc... Other than that great video!
Exactly so, however you forgot to mention the trading is conducted by "narco barons gangs" with the Ok from corrupt Colombian gov since eons ago so security is 101%
Q desgracia esos territorios deberían estar sin hambre y con lo nesesario ya q la mina está en sus territorios todo se lo lleva las multinacionales.. q vergüenza

It’s a great video / documentary thank you for sharing this with the world . Can you share some of the details/ contacts of the dealers . I personally would love to make a trip to Colombia to buy emeralds .
That was not a jackhammer, that was a drill so they could insert the dynamite. This guy was saying the jackhammer failed. You can tell the guy was strong armed to sell the stones for $11,000, he wanted $14,000
I wonder if these dudes who sell to the international dealers in Colombia know how much the price jumps when it gets to the states, that shit jumps just like a kilo of coke fr . That $5,000 gem easily goes for 10x that in America.
Cest vraiment intéressant. Il ya emoroide chez nous au Mali, toutefois je ne peux dire que ca les memes valeurs que les tiens. Un documentaire interessant
It is sad, but you notice how when the few guys were interviewed what they will do if they find an emerald, they said buy alcohol. Some people are poor because of their own bad decisions with money. Instead of saving their money and building a better life, they spend it on alcohol.
Aqui en México no le toman valor alas esmeraldas ,puedes traer una incrustada en un anillo de 18 k de 6 gramos de oro y con 70 puntos de diamante y solo te dan 9 mil pesos mexicanos osea que de los diamantes solo te dan como 1500 pesos del oro te dan como 7 mil pesos y de la esmeralda apurada mente 500 pesos ,pero la dejas perder y ese anillo con las piedras lo vez que lo venden hasta en 60 mil pesos mexicanos
No tienen otro camino, acá en colombia hay muchos pueblos donde se sacan distintos minerales como, oro, esmeraldas etc, y esos pueblos están sumidos en la pobreza, las grandes multinacionales extranjeras se aprovechan de ellos.
Hola from NYC .. what city are you in Colombia ? You guys are lucky I visited once to Medellin and the amount of stunningly beautiful women is unbelievable. There is nowhere else in the world like it …. Of course a very rich and beautiful culture, food, natural wonders etc but the women … ruined for me when returning to NY lol
In the early nineties I sold sculptures I made at art fairs where I met a lot of jewelers. When I met a Colombian girl and planned on visiting her in Bogata my jeweler friends told me to buy them crude emeralds. My girlfriends mom set me up with an emerald cartel member. The man told me his people will front me as many kilos of raw emeralds as I wanted to take back to Florida and at an agreed upon date I will pay them in full. If you dont pay on that date THEY WILL KILL YOU he added. I kindly declined his offer.
Pero amigos pónganse lógica por Dios. El doblaje original es en ingles pero la IA nos da la posibilidad que nos traduzca el ingles al español latino es por eso que se oye español sobre español
As usual the Rich will be Rich and the Poor will be Poor! These hard workders should be valued and paid more! Those Rich buy those high-end jewelries for $$$$ and those hard workers get paid just $. What a shame say!
They don’t have the contacts, money or the means to keep, value, cut, sell so like with most things the value goes up as it goes up the chain to final destination… locked up in a rich persons safe.
Bueno pero en Realidad ya no se puede saber si una piedra es presiosa o es un simple vidrio de cualquier botella en un vídeo de RUclips salió un excelente artesano elaborando una piedra para un anillo quebró una botella color 2:54 verde esmeralda y la trabajo paciente mente hasta que dejó una verdadera joya en fin una verdadera obra de arte por lo visto lo que cuenta es el trabajo de un buen joyero sin importar el material con el que este trabajando
$11,000-$14,000 & then BACK Down to $11,000?? That was kinda weird that someone said $11k was too little and then once $14k is offered he says $11k is fine?? Im pretty sure some of the conversation was lost in translation... Its crazy what people go through for a green rock lol...
Sé que los colombianos me entenderán cuándo lo diga, me pareció interesante (aparte del pago en efectivo) que solo usan el cono monetario antiguo, puros billetes de los viejos y en buen estado, osea, PURA PLATA ENTERRADA !!! Tremenda mafia... Que pesar !

emeralds are definitely underrated.. such a beautiful stone
Emeralds are great, you should check out Tsavorite garnet if you love green stones. They are immaculate.
The voice-over just kills me.
LOLLLL

Sorry for your loss. That roommate will reap what she has done.

If you would like a new emerald I can help.
No bueno ,so sad😢
This kind of videos are very beautiful videos...I wish you to prepere new useful videos like this...Congratulations...
Orgulloso de mi Colombia ❤ Tenemos de todo
Orgulloso de que ?
Que sacamos si las ganancias son para unos pocos bolsillos.
Orgullo!!!
No sabe el mundo tan oscuro que hay detras de todo este mercado.
Los trabajadores en condiciones muy malas.indignas!!!
Obvio que el oro y las esmeraldas,son tesoros preciosos.
Pero deberian quedarse en su lugar
Orgulloso? Pero que dice hombre?
Excellent documentary, can't imagine how difficult it was to produce this

Absolutely agree.
Esto me recuerda a la pelicula "Diamantes de sangre"..solo que con esmeraldas.
Q desgracia esos territorios deberían estar sin hambre y con lo nesesario ya q la mina está en sus territorios todo se lo lleva las multinacionales.. q vergüenza
muy cierto esto es una humillasion tan ricos y tan pobres todos roban al pueblo
¿Cuáles multinacionales? Ni siquiera entendió el documental. Los que explotan las minas todos son colombianos.
Lamentablemente

That was not a jackhammer, that was a drill so they could insert the dynamite. This guy was saying the jackhammer failed. You can tell the guy was strong armed to sell the stones for $11,000, he wanted $14,000

Definitely come by boat with a bag full and come up quick
The workers get 100 Euro a month? Not fair at all. $110 US dollars. By the way that's one good documentary.
Beautiful ❤️ Stone🎉
Nice Documentary ❤
Lovely Rocks ❤
22 de septiembre 2024 disfrutando éste gran documental gracias.
Dios Bendiga a los esmeralderos y Gracias a los periodistas por este documental 🙏👍⚘️☘️👏👏👏👏
Such a good introduction video to know what’s the story behind the stone.
The business is incredible, in Colombia the corruption and misgovernment is total, regrettable.
Very disciplined and easy to organize that takes waste 😊😊😊
Beautiful 😍 I think am in love with all gems at one time ❤
Zambia has some of the most beautiful emeralds.

I wonder what some of those mine workers are running from? Especially the ones that dip out of the camera's view.

En esa época posiblemente 13 o 10 años no podían entrar a grabar, ahora hay cantidad de creadores de redes sociales transmitiendo a diario alli
Por qué lo doblan el audio? Si los mineros hablan el español igual y perfectamente
Justo me preguntaba lo mismo
Pero amigos pónganse lógica por Dios. El doblaje original es en ingles pero la IA nos da la posibilidad que nos traduzca el ingles al español latino es por eso que se oye español sobre español
What would be the results if payment is suddenly done in cashews
Well…. You’d need to bring a lot of 40 footer shipping containers then, I guess
Lol 😆
Tenho áreas de vários minérios pra exploração aqui na Bahia Brasil..
No falta el Brasileño o Venezolano que se quiera pegar.
Vea, en Brasil jamás encontrarás esmeraldas como las de Muzo.

Good job your video, interesting
