Mineral Talks LIVE - Episode 93 - Dr. Emmanuel Fritsch; Research Prof., Univ. of Nantes, France

It's our last interview of the year and we go out in full Christmas Spirit!!!

In this Episode - our 93rd of the program - we catch up with our friend Dr. Emmanuel Fritsch - Research Professor at the University of Nantes in France - to learn about what has guided his incredible career and where he's headed to now.

A consummate collector (maybe that needs to be a new term in our hobby - Consummate Collector or CC), Emmanuel shares so much of his passion WITH passion as he tells us about how he got started in minerals and why his focus has been so much on mineral fluorescence and twinning.

From the Sorbonne University in Paris to the GIA in Carlsbad, California to the University of Nantes in France, Emmanuel has tripped the light fantastic around the world with his trademark inquisitiveness, clarity of observation and humble personality.

In this interview you'll come to understand why Emmanuel has made such an incredible impact in the world of gemmology, and even mineralogy, and how we've all benefitted from his work.

So join us now as we talk with Dr. Emmanuel Fritsch in our final Mineral Talks LIVE interview for the 2024 season.
