much for sharing what a crazy great deal I couldn't make that for that price really beautiful thank you so much kind of love about us you can thank Kyle Russell for all this great stuff love that little cap right there on the crystal so here's the thing a lot of people are interested a lot of people are interested in Jade and they are looking at this which is actually serpentine and it's not that it's fake it's just serpentine as a different stone it's not actual real Jade this is what real Jade looks like so it's a deep color it's got that really sort of luxe depth to it and it's important to know the difference because a lot of people are selling serpentine as Jade so when you go around you have to ask is it serpentine pate or is it actual Jade and because serpentine is going to be a lot less expensive Jade is going to be more expensive yeah even that Big Show's like Tucson you can still find people selling serpentine as a nephrite or something I mean the serpentine Jade is real - it takes ten times yeah for ten times the technique to carve nephrite Jade Oh Jade Oh Jade and it does for serpentine because it's so soft yeah do you know any like to someone who can't tell with the eye do you know any characteristics you can tell just by touching or well really you know if you can really look at that that color you really see that difference in there and there's also almost more of elegant like a luminescent quality or like this has sort of more of a opaque quality and this has almost more of a like a sheen or in depth to it it's a blessing that you bring this to let people know the difference it's important you know we want people to love stones and there's it's not that it's not that the serpentine isn't lovable just know what you're getting like if surfing is great but know that you're buying serpentine instead of J and if you want J get Jane Thank You Kylee it's truly a blessing and a pleasure thanks for being here Kyle doing great so check this folks out I see these folks every year during the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show every year during the Denver Show they make these beautiful water infusers where you can get the crystal medicine from the stones

my grandma convinced me otherwise but that is so cute they were saying that the blonde hair at the Denver show was from the babies and the darker Brown was from the Mamas I wonder if these were alive at the same time as people that people ever milk them for like mammoths milk I would drink some for sure [Music] oh no it's just starting can you tell me about this the only way I can tell you this by looking at the bottom dedicate right yeah I've only seen cabs event I've never seen a specimen of it before absolutely stunning have a productive what what a deal he cleans them all himself around I imagine that each and every one might take a slightly different process a huge space in Dublin and every every space is set for a particularly thing oh yeah thank you kindly if you don't mind I'd love

have a lot of friends pay $20 a day a lot of this stuff they're not really getting this quality but go dig up your good medicine nonetheless believe these are irradiated if they're from Arkansas I don't think there's missing two clicks from Arkansas and actually irradiate that Arkansas quartz to turn it black great looking valence when you see it that black and it looks like obsidian most of the time its radiated some smoky quartz can be that black this is definitely in trailer I don't recommend popping their crystals into the microwave have any idea how they radiate these to turn the black $1600 for this bad girl this bad girl $75,000 tenth really more money than I've ever made in my life I believe but I'm a little budget boy [Music] in fact of us octopi to believe is a cotton ball I'm real familiar with the frogs the place of origin well you get an eye for the different cutters from out of the world feels like a kingfish angelfish remember those are things I've everyone's
