In case you don't recognize that particular selection, they happen to be the stones of the [[Breastplate of Judgment]] worn by [[Aaron]] and his descendants. If you go to [[Twelve Tribes of Israel]], you'll see a gallery with enlarged pictures of all of them, in the order of their appearance on the garment. (I added the stenciled [[Hebrew]] text on each photograph.)--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 13:32, 4 December 2008 (EST)

:Admittedly, I'm not a very religious person and don't know much about the Breasplate except the gemstones themselves, but I'd be more than happy to learn about it and include that in my edits. I'm always interested in ancient jewelry. Thanks! Jalast Jeweler 14:18, 4 December 2008 (EST)

Hi - keep up the good work, I am enjoying your articles. Just want to check - these do all count as "gems" right? Just want to add a category:gems to the articles to assist navigation. Silly question, I know - but you know girls - our knowledge begins and ends at 'diamond' ^_^ --[[User:JessicaT|KotomiT]]<sup>[[User talk:JessicaT|''ohayougozaimasu'']]</sup> 12:40, 5 December 2008 (EST)

:''our knowledge begins and ends at 'diamond' ^_^'' Too cute! :P

:A gem is basically a stone or mineral that has significant value (precious and semi-precious). So yep, the articles I've made so far qualify as gems. I don't have much knowledge of rocks that geologists would know. Isn't there already a category for gems though? [[User:JimJeweler|Jalast Jeweler]] 16:33, 5 December 2008 (EST)

:: Yes, there is a category for Gems, (http://www.conservapedia.com/Category:Gems) and for Birthstones. I created many of the pages for gems, including: [[Garnet]], [[Topaz]], [[Amethyst]], [[Ruby]], [[Emerald]] and [[Sapphire]].  Please feel free to add any improvements, they are welcomed! :) -- [[User:Taj|Taj]] 16:40, 5 December 2008 (EST)
