Q: Can you give the exact location where sufficient Beryl deposits can be found for the most economical and commercial production?
A: Well, this would require a great deal of seeking out. . . . those in the Ural range, and in the Siberian country, show greater quantities . . . in the southern Andes Range or near that border line between the Chilean and the Peruvian . . . In those points, then, where the least change has taken place will be found the greater deposits of these beryl.

More on Beryl
Emerald is the most widely known variety of beryl. Because of its significance throughout history, we will discuss it in an upcoming section of the book.
Pure beryl is actually colorless, but various impurities give this gem a variety of colors. Other beryl varieties are significant and interesting also. We’ll explore some of these briefly.
Aquamarine
The name of this gorgeous pale blue variety of beryl comes from the Latin words aqua and marinus, which mean “water of the sea.”
Legend says aquamarines belonged to the treasure chests of mermaids. Sailors believed aquamarines would protect them from shipwrecks and even went so far as to carve statuettes of Neptune and Poseidon from aquamarine stones.
The aquamarine has been a favorite of psychics and intuitives, assisting them in hearing messages from other realms and effectively communicating the information to clients. The blue color ties into the water element, as mentioned earlier with the blue agate. Aquamarine cleanses the emotional body and assists in releasing and expressing emotions.
For those drawn to the sea, aquamarines will help you tap into past lives at sea. Once you recall those experiences, either you will heal from phobias of the water or gain a remembrance of activities and skills acquired during those aquatic lifetimes that will benefit your current incarnation.
Heliodor
Named for the Greek words helios and doron, which mean “gift from the sun,” this greenish-yellow variety of beryl will connect you with solar energies. Heliodor strengthens the solar plexus chakra, making abundance, wealth, and power available to you.
Sometimes confused with golden beryl, the heliodor refers to the greenish-yellow variety, while the pure golden beryl has a yellower color. The healing green hues support you to open your heart and stand in your power.
If you need to garner strength or courage for any endeavor or project, heliodor is an excellent stone to use. Primarily found in Namibia, this stone also occurs in Brazil. The yellow color comes from iron, which is a grounding metal. Grounding is one of the reasons why the greenish-yellow beryl will strengthen your resolve to follow your heart and complete your projects in a timely manner.
Lucid Beryl
White lucid beryl, a colorless variety, does exactly what the name implies by assisting with lucid dreaming and tapping into the wellspring of information available in the unified field during sleep.
Morganite
Pink beryl, named after the famous banker J. P. Morgan, will connect you to the faerie realm and help you communicate with unseen helpers from that world. The pink color comes from the element manganese, a trace mineral.
Epsom salts, or magnesium sulfate, is comprised of the essential element magnesium, which is often confused with manganese. I have long believed magnesium to be essential to healing. Epsom salts cleanses unwanted or negative energy from your field and leaves you feeling refreshed.
Similarly, morganite lifts your energy above normal reality, giving you higher vision. Morganite also removes unwanted vibrations and attunes your inner hearing to higher realms.
Red Beryl
Extremely rare, red beryl from Utah and New Mexico gets its red color from manganese. A powerful energy for opening up to intuitive information, the red beryl will help you to connect with the spirit energies of the desert. Red beryl will also connect you to past lives lived as a Native American. If you have not yet experienced Native American powers in other incarnations, this beryl will allow you to connect with the wisdom of the elders in order to use that knowledge in your current life.
