Gem Quiz

Here’s the Answer to August’s Gem Quiz

AUGUST’S MYSTERY STONE was Thulite, named in honor of its northern roots and which is Norway’s national gemstone no less. It thus seemed somewhat apt that our winner — Joseph Korona, co-owner of Korona Jewelry — would also hail from somewhere northern and famously snowy – Buffalo, NY. Well done, Joseph, who scores this month’s Jewelry Geek t-shirt, and all our Honorable Mentions, who also submitted correct answers. Keep an eye on this space. A new Gem Quiz will be posted soon.
