Description: Beryl Locality: Chivor Mine, Chivor, Guavió-Guatéque Mining District, Boyacá Department, Colombia (Locality at mindat.org) Size: thumbnail, 1.2 x 1 x 0.9 cm Green Beryl The great beryl deposits of the Andes Mtns. have produced the world�s finest and deepest colored emeralds. This particular emerald is doubly terminated, transparent, with the palest blue-green color saturation I have ever seen in an emerald. I call it a green beryl, rather, though technically it IS emerald. Interesting!
