Ametrine from Bolivia documentary of Patrick Voillot

Russian :
Japanese :
The Indians from the tropical forests of Chaco in Bolivia recount that at night plaintive sounds emanate from the Anaï mine.

This legend is still very present in their minds and is connected to the place where one finds this fascinating mauve and yellow stone called ametrine.

While watching this documentary film you will participate in an adventurous expedition to the heart of a little known country, Bolivia.

After several days navigating the Rio Paraguay, which has the largest reserves in the world of crocodiles and piranhas, you will be taken to a place lost in the tropical forest of Chaco in the far east of Bolivia, where wild animals and mosquitoes reign.

Bolivian miners who are long experienced in exploiting the subsoil, discovered one of the largest known geodes : superb crystals covering the edges of a chasm measuring several hundred square metres.

English :

French :
Isolated from the rest of the world, these teams take it in turn to exploit the precious gem, sort it and send it by boat towards Santa Cruz.

In this town, the rough crystals are transformed into superb cut stones which are then sent to various cities in the country and worldwide.

The route along which the ametrine travels cuts across Bolivia with its wild festivals such as the carnival of Oururo. The stones will be sold in the United States in world’s largest market for precious stones in Tucson, Arizona where Lorenz Baümer, the jeweler in Place Vendôme in Paris, goes to buy these rare gems which he will mount onto his creations.

The Spinels of Tajikistan documentary of Patrick Voillot

English :
Deutsch :
French :
Italian :
Spanish :
Chinese :
Russian :
Japanese :
The large red stones found on the crowns of the Christian kings are spinels. This gem has long been confused with the ruby. ‘Balas Ruby’ is an old name used for the rose-tinted variety, originating from a distortion in linguistics from the region in which it comes from, Badakhshan. This region lies in the current Republic of Tajikistan, close to the Islamic republic of Afghanistan.

This film takes you into Central Asia; into a country not very well known, and you will live an extraordinary adventure!

After crossing through the countries’ rutted trails, the most poor and barren on the continent; after traveling through grandiose scenery, you arrive at the foot of a mine with a mythical name, Kuh I Lal.

No Westerner has ever penetrated this territory; long exploited by the Soviets, production was secretly transported to Moscow.

The galleries are excavated at a very high altitude here, so it is only possible for minors to work in the summer. These men live simply and harshly, in lower lying villages. They remain there all winter; snowed in, with watch dogs to protect them from the wolves’ attacks.

Since the fifth century, from generation to generation, miners have dug tunnels to find this gem, ranging in shades of pink to red. They use very old materials left by the Soviets when the Eastern bloc broke and they abandoned the country.

This mine has always been coveted by the powerful, already the forerunner of the great Mughals Timur, the lame also called Tamerlane in Samarkand burial (you can see the exhumation dating back from the year 40) had sent an army to protect “I Kuh Lal.”

Spinals found in Dushanbe are conveyed by road, under heavy protection. They actually go into a state bank to increase the Treasure of Tajikistan.

Over the centuries, they have enriched the treasury of the Shahs of Iran, the imperial crown of the Tsars, and the Queen of England; we also find the famous Treasury in France, called the Côte de Bretagne.

Then, the jeweler Van Cleef opens the doors of their workshop to design, manufacture and to achieve a gorgeous pendant adorned with rose colored spinels.

Bolivia, quốc gia của Tây-Trung Nam Mỹ.
Quốc gia này không tiếp giáp với biển. Nhưng đó là bây giờ thôi, còn trước đây thì vẫn có một vùng tiếp giáp với Thái Bình Dương, sau Chiến tranh Thái Bình Dương (1879–84) thì đã mất vùng lãnh thổ này vào tay Chile. Nhưng các thỏa thuận với các nước láng giềng đã cho phép nước này tiếp cận gián tiếp với Thái Bình Dương và Đại Tây Dương. Thủ đô hiến pháp là thành phố lịch sử Sucre, thủ đô đầu tiên của Bolivia, nơi Tòa án Tối cao được thành lập; nhưng thủ đô hành chính là La Paz, nơi các cơ quan hành pháp và lập pháp của chính phủ vận hành
