Official Question Material
Prep: 30-40 Seconds

Emerald is defined by its green color. To be an emerald, a specimen must have a distinctly green color that falls in the range from bluish green to green to slightly yellowish green. To be an emerald, the specimen must also have a rich color. Stones with weak saturation or light tone should be called "green beryl." If it is greenish yellow it is "heliodor." This color definition is a source of confusion.
