- Emeralds are a variety of the mineral beryl, having green colour caused by trace amounts of chromium and sometimes vanadium.
- Sometimes they have shades of blue and yellow, it looses color on prolonged heating.
- Emerald hardness ranges from 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale.
- The word “Emerald” is derived from Vulgar Latin: Esmaralda/Esmaraldus, a variant of Latin Smaragdus, which originated in Greek.
- As we have said before, its birtstone of May and in some cultures emerald is considered traditional gift for the 55th wedding anniversary.
- The “Gachala Emerald” is one of the largest emeralds in the world at 858 carats. This stone was found in 1967 at Vega de San Juan mine, Columbia.
