<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSW, post: 1106702, member: 8708&quot;]Ive been playing with my new gem tester (aka Mary Contrary) to decide if it&#039;s working correctly. Decided I wouldn&#039;t know unless I had verified samples to check against. My problem is that despite googling I&#039;m confused as to which gems go under a different name. i.e is Beryl a type of quartz, is jasper hessonite etc?</p><p>I know it has its limitations and can just give me a guideline. I&#039;d just love some help to interpret my results with the verified gems please.</p><p>Thankyou</p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Accurate results- Hessonite,Peridot,Amethyst,Aquamarine,Jadeite,Quartz,sapphire, Ruby,diamond.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unsure-</p><p>Beryl- tested as jadeite/quartz</p><p>Jasper- hessonite/jadeite/quartz</p><p>Carnelian-jadeite,nephrite/spessartite</p><p>Sodalite-Aquamarine/Jadeite/Nephrite/paraiba</p><p>Chrysoprase-Aventurine/Demantoid/peridot</p><p>Garnet-Amethyst/Aventurine</p><p>Lapis L-Aquamarine,Iolite,Nephrite</p><p>Serpentine-Aventurine,Demantoid,Jadeite,peridot</p><p>[ATTACH=full]210922[/ATTACH] .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
