Tourmaline and Garnet
How to identify Gemstones with Magnet and the Piezoelectric effect.

In this Video I will show you a simple way how to identify Gemstones. This Episode is about Tourmaline and Garnet. Since Tourmalines and Garnets in particular have the strongest magnetism of all colored Gemstones due to their achromatic properties, this Episode is about differentiating Tourmaline and Garnet from other non-magnetic Minerals and Rocks by means of a simple Test and with the help of a precision Balance and a strong Magnet.

Since Tourmaline and Garnet quite often have similar Colors and both show a clear magnetism, I also show a simple and quick way to distinguish both clearly magnetic Gemstones from each other. So we use the piezoelectric property of the Tourmaline in the Video instruction to distinguish it from Garnet.

Both Tests are explained Step by Step in a simple and understandable way and shown in front of the Camera using several Examples.

There is also a short learning unit why Tourmaline and Garnet are magnetic in the first place and where this property comes from. You will also learn how a Tourmaline is charged piezoelectrically and how we can use this property to distinguish it from Garnet, but also from other Gemstones, in our special example.

I hope you enjoy my Videos and looking forward with me together, to work on Gemstones.
