Found A Mountain Full of Australian Jade – Chrysoprase
Chrysoprase is a valuable rare form of chalcedony. The colour and translucency can easily be confused with Jade. In some parts of Asia, top quality pieces is referred to as Imperial Chrysoprase and some even pass it on as Jade. The presence of nickel is what gives it its vivid green coloration.

That’s cool I didn’t know that was a nick name for chrysoprase. I know it’s color fades over time in sunlight…
Im from the USA but I would LOVE and wish I could learn under the tutelage of Liz Kreate when it comes to prospecting, ID’ing minerals and gems, and finding these amazing places! Been following her and trying to learn all I can by watching her videos for years and on repeat lol
maybe its just me, but i actually love the lesser valued stones. i think some of the inclusions or flaws make the stones beautiful
Hi liz is this site in nsw ? I would love to go there
Beautiful stone! So many big pieces would make great flower bed decor.
How is it rare if it’s just chalcedony variety? Is it very rare?
That’s crazy! You are blessed!
Where is this in australia can you tell me adress
Those would be perfect for my bearded dragon’s enclosure! She would love them. She uses her tounge to smell stuff so I am not sure if it would be healthy for her. I wish I could find those rocks, here in the states. They are stunning.
Hi Liz, I am new to your channels, would it be possible for you and Wal to let us know where you are finding this beautiful gems.
Hi Liz, I would like to know if you have found Green Quartz Bloodstone while on your travels in North NSW?
how do I get here? beautiful
Where are these I need to see them they’re beautiful
Is this the same gemstones that when you cut them they have a beautiful ocean scenery? I am pretty sure it is. People like the slabs to make oceans and clouds and the surf and it looks exactly like a sea scape.
Woww!
love to find places like this love your videos and knowledge
i know where theres full mountan of it in nsw so ill be filling my car up
I’d want to bring them all home and put them around my garden!
An old nickel mine you say? You should go again with some platinum test solution and hydrogen peroxide to see if you can find any traces. If the nickel mine is old enough they would have seen platinum as a hinderance and waste of time as well as a maintenence headache. So it was discarded .
Where can I find all these
super. I found chrysoprase in Turkey.

Thanks.
So what is this called when it’s blue? Been seeing it called ocean picture stone cause the inclusions look like islands and beach the white looks like clouds when it’s cabbed
I whis go to Australia and discovered gems with you Liz create!!! I love the gems
being 7 Moh’s chrysoprase is useful for flint and steel, I have driven sparks off a piece, I wish the mines would sell off that discarded chrysoprase cheap for flint and steel purposes. It’s a waste having it just sitting there and you gem hunters won’t use it as it has too many inclusions and flaws in it, which doesn’t bother flint and steel users.
WAOOOOO!!!! A LOT OF CABOCHON, PEARL, CHIPS OF GEMSTONE!!!! I REALLY IN PARADISE!!!
Hi Liz I love all your videos they are very help full but I would like to ask a couple of questions is there a way I could contact you please

Thật rock not hard enough to call jade , he can break it easy with hammer / gems stone or Jade when you use the light facing the stone it’s will be very bright light inside the stone
Hello Liz
Would you consider bringing someone with you, as guest, when you go exploring ?
would love an idea where this is. taking the youngest (9) for his first fossick in a couple of weeks. he loves the stuff.
Can you share where this place is please? Would love to check it out one day.
Good work as always.
Cheers
My grandmother and mom has a lot of jewelry with jade. And I know that it’s hard to find jade of gem quality.
You are so lucky Liz to have all those gorgeous crystals to pick. I love stones and crystals whenever I am in a new place, I always picked beautiful stones to bring home as souvenir.
What is the best color of jade? Is it dark green? Or light green?
