The Red Emerald

Tens of thousands of hexagonal beryl structures work in tandem to construct an Emerald gem crystal, in both the red and the green varieties.

The molecular relationships in beryl mineral formations are investigated to reveal the origins of Emerald's enchanting and complex geome

The atomic structure of a colored gem needs a Structural and Coloring element to form -- Red and Green Emeralds contain the same elements.

The Mirror Plane is an unseen boundary in a Dihexagonal Dipyramidal shape which can alter the formation of edges in a beryl specimen.

The red variety of beryl has a modified crystal structure also observed in the green, allowing for geometric proof of the Red Emerald's

The Red Emerald crystallizes in the same prismatic hexagonal form as the Green Emerald, and possesses the same unique identifying crystal mo
