Hi Craig and Tracey
Its amazing that these stones are still somehow worthwhile to cut considering their poor quality. The fractures all through them, you’d think they were emeralds or something. Low grade aqua like this is not the norm for the rest of the world. Aqua is a type I clarity gem. Inclusions typically aren’t accepted so freely.
Thank you ☺️

Thank you for posting more!! I’ve been hanging for these😄
❤️❤️❤️👍💎💎
what about using solar powered hair blowers to help melt things?
Wow I’m so happy and glad that it’s going so well the brothers who started are definitely a huge asset to the team it’s amazing to see y’all scaling up every year very smart thanks for the inspirational videos I’m recovering from a bad spinal injury help pass the time & because of you guys/girls I now am fascinated with all types of gems I’m love science so learning loads so thank you so much!!!!!! Big love from New Zealand 🇳🇿🖤🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸🤙
Hello my friends, I am a geologist from Brazil, I have ideas that can help you to better locate targets with marine water,
an example is with a
petrographic sheet rock you can see how the faults and structures that cause seawater mineralization, you georeference these structures on the googleearth map and locate larger deposits across faults and hydrothermal alteration zones
Seems to me like some of the “finds” don’t seem to produce the same joy as others even though the find should make someone jump up. Also they don’t seem to come from a pocket…The mineral crystals seem very clean almost too clean and dry. I wonder if these guys don’t pocket some of the crystals to “find” on days where they don’t find much. 11:42 like this one. Or when Chris found “Big Boy” on another video.
I would love some info on how I might obtain your quality of aquamarine gems. Aquamarine is me and my sons birthstones and I would love to get a matching pair of earring’s.
We climbed Antero yesterday and stopped in your store today. Aquamarine is my wife’s birthstone so we bought several carats of the smaller chips on this trip. I’m planning to get her a nice gem for Christmas. This is so exciting to watch!
The mountains are beautiful. Nice seeing wildlife too. I would love to try this.
Becareful up there.
Stay safe…Janet xo. Ajax Ontario Canada. Thak you for sharing.
Its so pretty cool .. hope i could have one so that i help more people in need in my community.
Hi i am indian what’s is this prise
I love microcline feldspar crystals. The color, the shape. Keep your aquas and your tourmalines (no wait!)
RIP Paul Lazar
Why don’t they put thawzall defroster machines on the dig sites? That’s how we thaw the ground in the winter up here in Montana.
27:00 my favorite tool, The Grabber lol 😂
I know what the true color of Aquamarine is because it is my birth stone. March. It has been told that the only place that you can find a true Aquamarine stone is in Brazil. They have been mining for over a decade for Aquamarine.
This is awesome lol. Aquamarine is one of the beautiful stone in this planet. Hard to find.
Thank you for sharing this interesting content!💯❤️
Love the vids keep it up 👍
any chance this 72 year old retired operating engineer could sublet a small space to try his old hand? I’ll only trade with you… I’d just really like to be up there with you "kids"😂
Yall gonna let me come dig up some hehe
Grew up looking at this peak
My favorite stone! For my birthday, I’m watching all of your shows! Because this is march’s birthstone! 🥰 much love from Denmark 🇩🇰
Why not use heaters to thaw?
Your hair looks very dirty need to wash and cut it
You are just awesome … I found this video very interesting , thanks for sharing :),,
Stop destroying matua habitat for the stones..you all should be.thrown out of there. And force today damages
Nice 👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Wow look at that driving an excavator! He is going to have to learn one way or another! It just seems with new year come new tech for the next generation to do even better by that mountain and the forest they camp in. They are teaching the next generation and I hope they just keep on going! I am really glad they have not been picked up by discovery or any other network that wants to make money off them at their expense.
Saltwater might be more efficient in the melting process.
Wow….
What a destruction of our beautiful planet, so sad!
I would love to go through their tailings! Along with everyone else!
Man i miss this show am soo happy to see the upload .. i hope they bring back this show.. thanks for the upload.. 👍👍👍👍👍
These aquamarines are USELESS
I had vertigo issues with a couple of angle shots. Beautiful stones ❤️🌿
Trying to work out why they don’t put a tank of water up the top of the hill to warm up in the sun with a long hose on it, rather than bottles of water?
My birthstone!
When I was a kid, I liked things like crystal ore. When I was in junior high school, I collected various kinds of ore here and there.
It’s been a long time since then, but this video reminds me of my old hobbies and passions.
Someday I want to dig it myself, too.
Thank you for the good video！！！
Y’all ever come across any coprolites….
scam
If you need some help I’m 19 and living in Leadville. Would love to come find aqua for you
That ist stupid sorry. Better plant trees
kid looks bored
I have Aquamarine Pakistan
in the last days what you extract from the earth you shall consume for it is an abomination. Then will you also be mined and the precious metals retrieved for our creator.
I have got one aqua marine in my ring
