RE: A Plate of Gemstones! Can you identify each crystal?
Thanks for posting this. We need more gem and mineral collectors posting. Although you need good pictures to properly identify minerals, here it goes. Pink - rose quartz
Green - malachite
Light Blue - blue chalcedony
2nd Blue - kyanite
Light Green - agate or possibly jadeite
Purple - tanzanite or corundum
Colorless right corner - quartz .
Hi thanks! I know, will have to find out how to take decent pictures!
I thought the tanzanite was going to be the tricky one, but you got that :-)
The two greens - the larger one is translucent (which might help) and the other should be a green-blue.
The translucent green one looks like green calcite, as I have a piece that looks the same!
almost right! :-)
