Emeralds are prized for their vibrant green color which is caused by trace amounts of chromium, vanadium, and iron in the crystal structure of the gemstone.  On the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, emeralds have a rating of 7.5 to 8. This means that while they are relatively durable, they are not as hard as some other gemstones like diamonds or sapphires.  Colombia is a famous source of emeralds, along with Zambia, Brazil, Afghanistan, and Zimbabwe.

Emerald is believed to enhance love, compassion, and emotional healing, as well as promote mental clarity, intuition, and problem-solving abilities. Emerald is associated with balance, healing, prosperity, and abundance. It is also believed to aid in spiritual growth, connection, and protection against negative energies.

Ammolite is an opal-like organic gemstone found primarily along the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains of North America. It is made of the fossilized shells of ammonites, which in turn are composed primarily of aragonite, the same mineral contained in nacre, with a microstructure inherited from the shell.  It is one of few biogenic gemstones; others include amber and pearl. In 1981, the same year commercial mining of ammolite began, ammolite was given official gemstone status by the World Jewellery Confederation.
