Volume 1: The Journey of the Rough Emerald Chapter 42: The Emerald Nature and Fluorescence of Jadeite
I see!
It seems that in this world, the truth is always in the hands of a few.
Because of the particularity of the structure of the jadeite rough, only a small number of people can fully study and understand the value of it.
And ordinary people like jade merchants are more likely to trade with each other with some luck elements.
"Wow, then a jade realm master like you, isn't there a lot of jade merchants who want to invite?"
Thinking that his master, as a top-level figure in the Xiangyu Master, could see the quality of the inside of the original stone at a glance, Yang Hao was a little excited.
How popular his master is with jade merchants!
After Chen Song reacted, he also looked at Liu with a shocked expression.
As a master who can understand jadeite wool, isn't that rich?
No wonder he didn't blink his eyelids when he said that he was helping himself pay for those medicinal materials, it seems that being a jade master is really rich!
"Guess what!"
Liu seemed to see what the two were thinking, looked at the two of them with a smug face, and smiled a little mischievously.
In any industry, as long as you reach the top level, wealth is at your fingertips, and you never have to worry about money!
Not only are many jade merchants like hiring themselves, but all forces are trying their best to invite themselves!
I look at the wool now, I don't care if the money is not money at all, it all depends on my mood and preference.
If the jade material is peculiar, go and take a look, if it is mediocre material, even if you give yourself a sky-high appearance fee, you don't bother to take care of it.
Anyway, those jade merchants don't have their own money, and they don't dare to make mistakes!
"Master, just tell me a little bit!"
"You study hard, and you will naturally be clear after you learn!"
Liu Yiyan didn't plan to discuss this topic too much.
This kind of problem can stop at the point, the so-called glue is not sticky, and the words are not sweet.
Talking too much will only affect their learning heart, and there is not too much benefit!
Chen Song looked at the two masters, smiled slightly, and looked at the pieces on the table, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Because of the westward inclination of the sun at this time, there are shiny flashes on the sides of the pieces on the table, especially the side of the pieces of bean jadeite, which is even more glittering.
"Huh?!"
Chen Song curiously picked up the piece of jade flake that belonged to the bean seed, and found that the irregular dotted flake flash phenomenon he had just seen on it was gone, and he couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
Liu Yiyan and Yang Hao heard Chen Song's surprised voice, and turned their heads to see Chen Song holding the piece of bean seed jadeite, and their faces were shocked.
Yang Hao asked curiously, "Chen Song, what's wrong?"
Chen Song put the piece in his hand back in place, and found that those shiny flashes appeared on the side of the piece again, so he said what he had just seen with excitement and puzzlement.
After listening to it at a glance, Liu looked at the irregular flake-like flashes on the sheet, and laughed: "This is a fly wing, also known as a sand star, which is actually the jadeite of jadeite, which is the surface of jadeite and the cleavage surface of jadeite minerals under the light, and only then will there be bright white reflective small surfaces like fly wings, because it is caused by reflection, it often appears in long strips or irregular flakes, which can directly reflect the shape and size of jadeite minerals in jadeite." ”
Chen Song muttered, "Cleavage surface?"
He completely understands what the rational side is!
Yang Hao knew, smiled, and explained to Chen Song: "The cleavage plane, in fact, is the main part of the reflection is the section of the crystal, in daily life, as long as it is a plane can be reflected, to put it simply, it is a one-size-fits-all cut, and the crystal plane that appears in the original stone is a special section of the crystal." ”
Liu glanced at Yang Hao with a smile and said: "Yang Hao is right, the size and orientation of each jadeite mineral in different jadeite are also different, so when the jadeite is rotated under the light, the fly wings in different parts of the cleavage surface will appear flake-like flashes of different sizes, and when the crystalline body of the jadeite is thick enough, the jadeite jadeite, that is, the fly wings, will be particularly obvious, and it can be easily observed by the naked eye." ”
After hearing this, Chen Song's heart moved, and asked, "Since it directly reflects the shape and size of the jadeite minerals contained in the jadeite, can the quality of the jadeite be judged based on this?"
Liu Yan was directly stunned by Chen Song's question, and looked at Chen Song with a shocked expression.
This young man really didn't look away!
This is a real waste of inference, not to be a jade master!
"Master Liu, am I wrong?"
Chen Song couldn't help but get nervous when he saw Liu Yi's eyes looking at him with a complicated expression.
"No, you're not wrong!"
Liu Yan came to his senses and said with a smile: "Jadeite is a polycrystalline aggregate, with a polycrystalline interwoven structure, so there are also this kind of fly wings on the regolith layer of the original stone, and it is closely related to the size of the jadeite mineral particles in the jadeite, the density of the fly wings on the regolith layer can directly reflect the internal flesh situation, the rougher the jadeite structure, the larger the jadeite crystal, the larger the cleavage surface produced, that is, the more obvious the fly wings, and vice versa, it is also small, and it is even difficult to see." ”
Yang Hao asked, "Master, does it have to be jade if there are fly wings?"
"Big mistake! Some jade stones also have similar fly wings, like some chrome mica in aventurine stone, which also has a bright white flash of fly wings similar to jade. ”
Liu Yiyan felt a little annoyed by Yang Hao's question.
How can the gap between people be so big!
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, and said to Yang Hao in a calmest tone as much as possible: "It is very dangerous to identify jadeite only by relying on fly wings, and it is even more important to understand the cause of fly wings in jadeite. ”
Liu Yan exhaled lightly, eased his mood, and said: "In some feldspar gemstones, this kind of fly wings can also be formed due to cleavage and poly double crystals, and because it is a poly double crystal development, the double crystal is extremely fine, and the pyroxene mineral jadeite is the mainstay, and their crystal structure characteristics also determine that it can form the cleavage surface of pyroxene, as well as the columnar and short columnar crystallization habits of pyroxene, so when the pyroxene crystal is a metacrystalline structure above medium grains, it can be easily seen in jadeite. ”
Yang Hao nodded as if he didn't understand, and said to himself: "It seems that the jade without fly wings is fake!"
“......”
Liu Yiyan was almost so angry when he heard Yang Hao's words that he vomited blood!
What a comprehension, what a perception this is!
Liu Yiyan kept admonishing himself in his heart: calm down, you must be calm!
When I started learning, I was even more unbearable than Yang Hao, mainly because Chen Song performed too well!
But he didn't notice that in fact, Chen Song was also at a loss and didn't understand now.
"Not all jadeite will have fly wings, for example, jadeite with good polishing, it is difficult to observe fly wings on its surface, because in the process of polishing jadeite, jadeite near the surface cleavage surface of jadeite is gradually thrown away, so fly wings can not be seen. ”
Liu Yiyan calmed down a little and continued: "From this, it can be seen that this kind of fly wings can be directly seen on the cut surface of the rough stone and in those jadeite products that cannot be polished or are not polished well, and the jadeite with a thick structure is more obvious, and the jadeite with a delicate structure is not obvious, or even visible, so the size of the fly wings is related to the development degree of the jadeite mineral cleavage plane on the surface of the jadeite, understand?"
After listening to this, Chen Song picked up the jade flakes of ice and glass on the table, put them on the table, looked at the unpolished side, and compared,
It was found that the crystals on the glass jadeite and the ice jadeite were very small, especially the glass jadeite, the fly wings were almost invisible, but there were very fine stars in the light, and you couldn't see it at all if you didn't pay attention!
Liu Yiyi saw Chen Song's movements and was very appreciative.
Chen Song's understanding of jadeite can be said to be rare in the world, at least it is the first time he has encountered it.
I couldn't help but worry about Yang Hao again, it is estimated that it will not be long before Chen Song will become the object of Yang Hao's admiration.
I wondered if I would find a time to talk to Yang Hao directly, lest he have a knot!
Liu glanced back at his senses, pointed to the two pieces of material that Chen Song erected on the table, and said: "The crystals of glass jadeite and ice jadeite are very small, so the jadeite is almost invisible, because it is difficult to see the fly wings with the naked eye! The fly wings are obviously a reflection of the size of the jadeite crystal particles, the more obvious the fly wings are, the larger the crystals of the jadeite, and the less obvious the smaller the crystalline particles. ”
To avoid Yang Hao from asking some more questions that drove him crazy, he said quickly: " So the fly wings are obvious jadeite, its water head will be very poor, that is, the transparency will be very low, but there are exceptions, some jadeite is well developed, the density and year of the material are enough, the degree of weathering is also very high, but its fly wings are more obvious, but its water head is very good, the transparency can almost be comparable to the ice jadeite, which also shows that the jadeite species and water are inseparable, the two complement each other but there are advantages and disadvantages, belonging to the community that grows alone. ”
Liu glanced at the fluorescent sheet on the table and said: "The most direct degree of combination of planting water is reflected in the level of jade fluorescence!"
"How high or low is the fluorescence?"
Chen Song and Yang Hao hurriedly looked at the egg noodles on the table that had been thrown away.
"From a physical point of view, the formation of this kind of fluorescence is due to the high transparency of this kind of jadeite, when the light travels to its polished surface in the air, the surface micro-ripples will produce a part of the reflected light, forming a reflective point, and then a part of the light enters the jadeite inside, before the photodense medium enters the air, the micro-ripples on the surface of the jadeite act again, and produce a strong diffuse reflection inside, and the refraction between the jadeite particles forms a hazy white light, that is, these fluorescences that we see with the naked eye, and because fluorescence is only an optical phenomenon that only a small number of jadeite have, the price of jadeite is much higher than that of jadeite that can not fluoresceThe strength of fluorescence can directly determine the level of jadeite water and value. ”
Liu Yiyan picked up the polished egg noodle from the table and put it on the palm of his hand, which reflected a white light, as if dragging a small luminous object in his hand.
"This is an optical phenomenon caused by the refraction of light, which usually only appears in jadeite with good seeds, small crystal particles, water head feet, and high transparency, such as glass jadeite and ice jadeite, and in order to highlight this fluorescence effect, jade carvers carve this kind of jadeite into a spherical surface to better gather light to form a dazzling but soft fluorescence, just like the egg surface of this glass species!"
