Emerald

The emerald begins to take shape from the silica base when aluminum is then added to it to make a chemical compound. That compound must then be mixed with beryllium in some form to make the emerald composition. There’s also a bit of a science to it. Basically, it’s like adding things in cooking. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen or follow a recipe but it’s pretty much the exact same result. In other words, it’d be three parts beryllium with the exact same amount of silica along with two parts of aluminum mixture. From there, the mineral is formed. You can also start out with a beryl and then work backwards by adding stuff in. First though, let’s try working up as we go before we trying going back through another process all over again. From the progression in order, going back would be a bit more advanced. I mean, taking stuff away isn’t that hard, scientifically speaking but it’s hardly the same as adding stuff in. Since we’ve discussed the other stuff once before, let’s try working on that last thing of making the beryl. Well, technically it’s not a beryl just yet but rather a beryllium stone or a compound you see. Beryllium starts off as ore once mined from the mountain or found deep within volcanic fields along with their rocks. Getting them though is an awful tedious process. Thus, it’s part of what drives up the prices reflected in industries of commerce and safety. Of course you could do the obvious and just crush the ore and apply with it some sulfate solution from things like the beryl and tartradine stone. Otherwise, there’s got to be a much simpler solution. There is but of course rather than going through all that other stuff. For this, you’ll need simply the beryllium-like mineral discussed once before. Places to find this include large granite fields, oil mines, and other places with coal. Dead giveaways for this include stones with pale green or blue colors like chalk making it’s color rather distinct. Then, you’ll want to simmer this in some water over a very high heat. Presumeably you can just boil the whole stone without having to crush it at first. You’ll need a somewhat higher temperature to do this than normal. The goal is to melt the mineral to combine with the waterized vapor. What is left should be the result from which beryllium hydroxide is formed. Actually, it’s the thing itself I think, since this mineral is naturally occurring. That means it happens over time due to the changes in nature. The volcanic fields provide just the right amount of the heat along with the water which keeps the earth moist just under the surface. Then again, these other elements are found in the mixing of earth in a sudden movement caused by volcanic eruption, the flood, or a sudden upheaval. The results are considered the beryllium hydroxide in Just the right mixtures. There may be some impurities left in it to be sure. That’s why you might have to skim the resulting dross off the top of where it has settled, or off the bottom if it comes to all that. After you do that, it'll then be time to combine in the rest of the other parts of the mixture. Ideally, that will create the desired look of the valued emerald stone. If it doesn’t, we’ll go forward until we reach the beryl then work backwards from there.
