RE: A Beryl of Fun!! (Beryl Gemstone)

in #science • 7 years ago

What a beautiful necklace.
Beryl is a wonderful gemstone with so many lovely variations.

I just quickly wanted to comment on one thing. Beryl is its own name and not an abbreviation, like you mentioned in your introduction. It is the common name for the mineral with the formula Be3Al2SiO6. Beryllium is an element with the formula Be and forms a metal in its native form.
