Live Session #29 Live minerals and gemstones Q&A

Recorded live session in which I answer viewers’ questions about minerals, gemstones and crystals using examples from my own collection. The following questions are addressed in this video:

• What is the difference between chrysopal and chrysopraas and dendrite opal and dendrite agate?
• If feldspars are so common in the Earth’s crust, why do we see them so little in collections?
• How can I distinguish between magnesite and hydromagnesite?
• How do I recognize real and fake moldavite?
• What to do with toxic minerals in the collection?
• What exactly is pink amethyst?

Do you have a question or interesting topic you want to know more about? Let me know! Who knows, maybe it will come up in one of the next videos.
