Emerald is a gem, and is a mineral called beryl. It is a beryllium aluminum silicate, and it has a bit of the element chromium (and sometimes vanadium) in it that gives it its characteristic green (or bluish-green) color. Got a link to the Wikipedia article on the emerald so you can click on it and surf on over. Why not check out the cool pics and get more info?
