The Guess the Gem answer is topaz!! It can be naturally blue, as well as other colours, but there are artificial methods to get blue too. #GuessTheGem #GeoscienceBluesky ⚒️🧪💎

Guess the Gem time!! What mineral do you think these gems are? Hint: the blue colour is from irradiation on the left and cobalt diffusion on the right. #GuessTheGem #GeoscienceBluesky ⚒️🧪💎

Two green gems in individual white plastic gem cases on white foam with the edges of other cases seen around them. They are mixed cut with the left one being bluer. At the Hunterian.

Layers of bright yellow sulphur and crystals of celestine. It looks like a (non-edible) piece of cake! #MineralMonday #GeoscienceBluesky ⚒️🧪

Specimen showing four layers in a wedge shape: bright yellow sulphur on the bottom and second from the top, and grey celestine in the second from bottom and top. The top is paler crystals of celestine with a bit of massive sulphur. A blue nitrile hand holds it up on a grey background. At the Hunterian.

Stress-free appreciation for cute little puffballs of okenite, no need to think about picking a favourite and voting since this mineral isn’t in this year’s Mineral Cup. #MineralMonday #GeoscienceBluesky ⚒️🧪

Specimen of grey rock with a cavity down the middle with green crystals and two white balls of thin okenite needles. Sits on a frosted plinth on a glass shelf off a grey wall. At the Royal Ontario Museum.
