http://gia.edu/gem-encyclopedia • Bolivian Ametrine: From Mine to Market by GIA. Learn more about Bolivian ametrine from Robert Weldon, GIA's photography and visual communications manager. He discusses the amethyst gemstone, the mines and the marketing of the gem. He also explains the rarity of Bolivian ametrine, and offers some personal insights about the time he spent in Bolivia as a young man. Ametrine is the rare and unique amethyst gemstone that is half amethyst (purple) and half citrine (yellow). Only 10 percent of Bolivian mined amethyst rock and amethyst crystals produce jewelry-quality ametrine. This video depicts the amethyst geode mine that is very difficult to access, and shows the amethyst rock and amethyst crystal mining process to produce amethyst gemstones. Robert Weldon offers a rare and valuable perspective on Bolivian ametrine, while shedding light on its unique gem-mining process. • Learn more about ametrine and amethyst with GIA's gem encyclopedia: http://www.gia.edu/amethyst • • Amethyst Quality Factors: http://www.gia.edu/amethyst-quality-f... • • Amethyst Description: http://www.gia.edu/amethyst-description • • Amethyst Buyer’s Guide: http://www.gia.edu/amethyst#buyers-guide • • Amethyst History and Lore: http://www.gia.edu/amethyst-history-lore • • Amethyst Care and Cleaning Guide: http://www.gia.edu/amethyst-care-clea... • The Official GIA Channel on YouTube has more information on amethyst geode variations • • Amethyst Quartz: • Amethyst Quartz by GIA • • Fashioned Ametrine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy5Mft3to • GIA exists to connect people to the understanding of gems.
