An introduction to gems, minerals, and the reasons for their different colors.
Rubies, Sapphires, and Padparaschas are all the same stone, but why are there different colors? How many colors of diamonds are there? Why does a specific shade of green jadeite make it ten or even a hundred times more valuable than other colors? Join us for a look at the dazzling (and often dizzying) world of gems, minerals, and some of the most beautiful colors in nature.
