TRAPICHE EMERALDS, are green as all emeralds are, but black carbon rays radiate out in a six pointed radial spoke pattern froma center
core and colorless beryl or black carbon often surrounds the green emerald areas. the center core may be in a hexagonal shape and contain
emerald (green beryl) or colorless beryl or it may not form at all.Every aspect of the Trapiche emerald varies greatly from specimen to specimen.
This includes the core shape, alignment of the spoke pattern,green emerald portion and its surrounding material. Often the overall crystal shape is
irregular with only the core and sometimes green emeraldsportion forming the regular hexagonal shape associated with beryl crystal but most often
even this is irregular. The green emerald portion may also form in a six leafed pinwheel or flower pattern when the carbon or other foreign material
forms in larger concentrations between the prisms of the green emerald crystal.
Characteristics of Emeralds
Geologically speaking, Colombian emeralds are said to be the purest emeralds in the world because Colombian emerald deposits are the only ones
on earth found in sedimentary host rock rather than in Igneous rock. The tectonic movements that created the Andes Mountains force the raw
materials of emeralds—beryllium, chromium, and vanadium—found in the ground into liquid and gaseous states. These materials, in such states, find
their way into cracks in the already sedimentary medium surrounding them and then eventually cool and crystallize. A saline solution found in the
sedimentary rock eventually washes out impurities such as iron that cloud other beryls from forming onto the crystallizing stone. This intricate
process produces the emeralds found in the mines of Colombia.
THE QUEEN OF THE GEMS
An emerald is actually a beryllium stone that owes its special color to beryllium, chromium, and vanadium, all of which are
chemical elements that are very scarce, and the reason for the color of an emerald. Colombian emeralds are much sought
after, and not just because of their superb quality and color. A gem\'s value depends upon its size, purity, color and brilliance.
Even when they are minedin the same area, each individual emerald has its own unique look that sets it apart from the rest.
Dark green is considered to be themost beautiful, scarce, and valuable color for emeralds.But,…often beautiful emeralds that
are lighter in color with good clarity and lifemake the most exquisite jewelry!
Fine emeralds are considered rare and are only found inthe deepest mines of Colombia
