4:18 pm
i'm updating the freshwater pro muscles. have seen the dinosaurs come and go easy, but now with us humans who might be the ones to drive them into extinction you can . yeah, you know, this is an aqua scope helps the researches have a clear view on the voice. so rebecca has used as a detective to locate the muscles that has been tagged with a time you micro chip that helps the scientists keep tabs on the most of the population which they monitor once a week. so kind of listen. this allows us to tell what kind of muscle it is without having to remove it from the stream, which would stress the muscle. but to make sure it's still alive, we do have to take them out once a year when the number to micro chips are attached to the show with dental simmons . and there it is all the days correct, and it's still where we left. it also got some super perfect
4:19 pm
pause tells me john hope a few 1000 years ago. the streams here were full of muscles all side. there are still people alive who remember that after the war the muscle bends here worth 3 layers. the iphone, when they looked at the bed of the stream, it looked totally black. that's how many muscles their worries and put all the polls that can be found in this pulse of eastern germany. but 1st documented in the 15 century, the huge must, will population attracted, poll specials in large numbers, but only one shell and every 2000 to muscles have the treasure nestled in sight. it's a news report from the 19 sixty's as a testament to that history. how do the i have the law keeps watch if he's the fishing trip takes place under the supervision of the mayor. this pearl is set to be as valuable as the treasures are based on the south pacific and the waters around australia. when did gibson,
4:20 pm
i was tied in the polls with suicide, stubb. i kings and queens as a symbol of power and wealth. the today, the muscles themselves, all the treasure. a single muscle can filter more than 100 leaks of water a day, helping to keep the stream clean and healthy, but now dry, summer's, and intensive farming, or destroying the habitats these days, the streams are often full just by phone and rather than meadows. so we will makes its way into the water and ends up as much of the muscles community strongly. lou sped as gravel. that's not, it's a huge problem for young muscles. of course, there's the modem star of their habitat of oxygen. mia and the young muscles end up covered in mud and suffocate into speaking the young muscles dying, leaving only
4:21 pm
a few adults. so few that hunting for poles would drive them to extinction cabinets for guy who i mean, what you see here is kind of like a hospice. i just the population in the stream is aging. you can imagine them as all middle aged, 50 and up without any young muscles at all. that's our biggest concern right now and why we're breeding personal muscles so that we can replenish the screen with young ones. it's the only way the conservationists can rescue the endangered species. the next batch of young muscles is ready to be moved into the street. the on the other side of the well, the south pacific is heading to poll voice. this species isn't endangered. so cultivating polos, he is viable, and it can also be sustainable. there's a huge ways to form the nice for surface of the boat, with thousands of voice to nets on roads that extend foreclosure trans. marine
4:22 pm
biologist. justin hunter is an expert on these delicate ocean dwellers. he's been following the species pink tied of my coffee to fit off for 20 years. ho aquaculture requires pace, since i'm the delicate touch. that's because every culture poll begins with a grafting procedure that mimics what would normally be a natural process. we don't want to over stress them this. this operation, of course, is quite a bit of stress, but we try to handle this gently as we can. they are living animals. that's why, you know, they're tapped with their quickly washed clean. they'll go through this process very fast, and then be back into a recovery tank. and then taking back out to the see the, the pseudo them down to is the most important member of the team. he carries out the crossing procedure onto your study,
4:23 pm
which induces health formation by imitating a natural process. first px truck, it's a tiny piece of mental tissue from it don't, don't waste that tissue has been implanted into the recipient royster, along with the tiny mother of co nucleus. it's a natural defense mechanism to use the will form, which is called a pell sec, around a foreign body of a time the nucleus is covered with what is called an acre layer by layer creating a pole. the hunters client care no travels from germany to fiji. every 3 or 4 years to buy a home, the outcome of the future to come i will show you some of the fluid just started um, implanting of harvesting a few implants. this the trial here with i'm up to the you have, it's the, i was the, here's the moisture that's already been implanted with
4:24 pm
a nucleus and the mantle tissue gives the tissue will grow around the nipple. yes. and over 2 years covered with 2000 delicate layers. of negro mother of pearl sheets with any luck, the end result is a perfect for awesome. perfect. it's yeah, it's, it's, it's not a short process at all. no 2 po cultivators are as patient as justin hunter. many ways to farmers in asia. the show fish with what kind of waste from chicken and pick farming. the over fed oysters produce up to 60 poles off to the harvest. they die. and this form of mass production is harmful to the environment. the in c g. the always does all returned into the sea for at least 18 months of today. you'll see that many stay longer to allow time for the pose to grow. a single one always stuck, not $65.00. so now we're going to see the farm where the pros
4:25 pm
come from in paradise our work, the team and what they're working on. now our voice there's that won't be on to the other always. those will be returned to the volta unless the full harvesting in 2 years time. and then the pose will be ready for your getting us newest jewelry collection the . so let's see what the mountain has in store for us flow while you remember how to get there. just like the oceans. mountains also home to many natural treasures concealed in the rocks. twin brothers, gaps and hunters full fox have spent every free minutes in these mountains since they were 12 looking for crystals and precious gems. today that professional
4:26 pm
crystal hunters, the essential and they need light and it's our past sion but it's also a kind of addiction when they look and wonder where you might find something like bains of white course crevasses or faults in the rock. we discovered a very interesting spot, a few weeks ago, and it looks really promising kudos. the whole fuzz collects up to $200.00 kilos of crystal every year about 50. if those are made into jewelry, there are many precious stones to be found in the alps, including emerald. i'm a cistern gunners, mining and the national park is highly regulated. only how moves and cro balls or permits it. drills and explosives are banned. the sites must be re natured, often mining and large of fines must be reports, it is
4:27 pm
not phoning the reading and what we do is very careful and respectful and we're not changing anything now. right? we're not using any chemicals. and when we remove the crystals, we make sure we don't disturb anything. so are there. so here we are. it's some of the top. these are going to work our way into that credit list. hooked them. yes, we're going to clear this box and see what's down there. we filed it up with stones . how many of a piece of books i've just mentioned or the book can be dangerous. so one of them will have to venture down into the narrow crevice and inspect the rock. they discovered traces of quotes here a few days ago, which is a promising sign. but they still don't know whether there are any valuable crystals to be found him the
4:28 pm
most not going in the house and the canister down to you. a song pull up the roof will reveal more about the treasures that might be hidden here. the was the tool was the efforts the on the constant, fine back. there's very, very fine rock crystal here. it's not that big yet, but it's a good indicator for larger crystals get is the cause of the cause like a solid. hm. uh huh. oh i was gonna do. it looks good. i would guess they're a bigger one to further down, but let's leave it over to a lawson. thank good say it's a promising starts. they'll stay here for a few days to recover some more of the precious crystals. the rock crystal nexus is our best seller. all my stuff,
4:29 pm
so we clean this one up a bit. and as you can see, its super high quality in one to the glittering and brilliant wind crystals basically spell isn't split. it's 15000000 years old, dominion in your to both. we're the 1st to you and ever have seen it. no one's ever touched it before. applying the head cook this beautiful trip. so it has been full being underground for an a ton to t. like to time and such an crown jewels and now gets its moment to shine in the bar a tree in switzerland. the process of foaming diamonds is unlocked. foster slips by its creates treasures that take many hundreds of millions of years to full not true name doesn't now live. olga. these are all organic products that you've loved letters. don't care. horse hair that's from the body. work up a formula
4:30 pm
e car host. the couples and it can all be processed into gratified, and this list is to coffee for all binding. graph all uses the base materials for the world's most precious stones. it can be made from any single panic, even dried rose petals. the precise method is a trade secret. only a few have most of the many complex steps involved in the process assist the selection, but it's the same thing that happens inside the years total. you need pressure and temperature in the right environment. and then once you know how it's done, the end result is a diamond to deal on. both sides has been making synthetic diamonds for industry, for decades. today, the quality of his diamonds is high enough to make jewelry, diamonds full natur needs under extreme heat and pressure in the interior. in the lab, this huge h b h t press which operates the pressure of about 60000 fall. and 1800 degrees celsius achieves the same effect in just
4:31 pm
a few weeks. most of the electricity he needs comes from solar power for jewelry, design the hegemonic and helped him on. the sympathetic gems are a perfect match for her accompanies philosophy of sustainability. the, the hello harold's, please hello, welcome to ready to see the diamond. that's happy to be here. most of the invoice. ok. let's take the rough stone out of the cell. yeah. let me know. we'll open it and see what we get. some of this whole is called the goldsmith has the stone for a diamond ring. now when did not look at it, cut and polished and add to it, right. as a 1000000000, cut out. good. yes, exactly, great towards this is a few decides that miss miss will pause or not for me. this is definitely a great alternative to natural diamond emission with it because mining diamonds
4:32 pm
doesn't just remove the jammed this vicar shop with all the overburden as well. and then there's the shipping distances. the top of the carbon footprint includes all the steps and the process like water consumption, etc. also the environmental impact of synthetic lab, thrown diamonds, is still smaller boxes and the amount of good thing, i'm just, i'm a split the that's a real diamond. i've grown in the lab one please, and the other is a naturally occurring diamond. visually, physically and chemically, you can tell them apart, the image is total side the authenticity is certified by an independent gemstone the power trees 3 weeks off to being causing, published the diamond. just finally annoyed. goldsmith higginbotham helped him on the steps to finish diamond to create an ethical and sustainable piece of jewelry. synthetic diamond costs 30 to 40 percent less than the natural one to mom does growing,
4:33 pm
particularly among younger customers. have medical science and who's gone. recycled 18, carrots, yellow gold, m a synthetic lab, ground diamond. it completely eliminates child labor as well as mining. so there's no harm done to the environment. and the end result is a totally sustainable product. gemstones made by human hands rather than nature, its own kind of miracles. the habitats of the fresh rules of held muscle is under threats to few muscle lobbies, the vines, in, across the border projects, most guaranteed and minus breeding, to protect animals and food that he needs round trout. without these fish, they would be no muscle. when a brown trout swims by in the law of the cling to the gills, if the fish the lobby grow, the protect it over the winter ones, the large enough,
4:34 pm
the young muscles drove past the host skills and on the gravel that they'll spend about 6 years buried here until this for the group. once the sexually mature, the cycle begins again, the default for these, these traffic off the trunk isn't really keen on being the host. you can almost imagine them complaining about it gets annoying for these fish because the muscle takes oxygen and for so it's a parasite, nato son. part of the symbiosis works, even though it's just once in a lifetime, because the following year the trial will have developed a resistance to the muscle is assistant at the breeding station. daniel, how does and me scholar blah check on the law of the nestled into trout skills. yeah. what we're doing now is opening the gill covering a little um, once it's exposed and we can see muscle larvae clamped to the gills. then we can
4:35 pm
monitor what developmental state directory and beginning with a larvae to a juvenile muscle in. so you as soon as the young muscles drove out of the gills. don, you and how living costs as the booster from the fish tank through. sift several times to retrieve them. you just look like dirty water, but the treasure lies hidden in it. the shops, there are hundreds of juvenile muscles in the said, the only emotion. yes, we're just going to give them a rinsing. that's got to examine them under the microscope and i'm thinking now let me just pull the futures. how's it looking, daniel? yeah, it looks really good. around 380. today's harvest a good, but i think that sticks super active vigorous. this could be a good year in the natural environments,
4:36 pm
the mussels would now be burrowing into the gravel in the labs of protect it for a while longer and the special punch costs and then it's time to leave the lapse. the punch cards mean the conservationist can check on the young muscles at any time and move them if need be. part of the project entails figuring out what is the optimal environment for the animals to thrive, the action of the location, because blah checks on the batch of muscles. they put out 1st, the bus looks good, the is india there, 5 years old. now they're in their 6th year and beginning of this year they could be transferred to the open water really the winter survival rate this year was 100
4:37 pm
percent. yeah. so, but the, the foster parents have done a good job the business, even though it's a huge success ation. of course, it's extremely satisfying to accompany them over 5 winters and to have it prove that the system works from the excel to the juvenile myself. and yet this is the, the work we've put in is buried fruit to some of the and now we'll be getting the 1st batch back into the stream, which is great to week to begin. so, but the most important goal is ensuring the survival of the species, even if that will never again be millions of fresh rolls and muscles. producing pounds for jewelry in the austrian alps, gal hops, and how much tulsa are assessing now. sadly, the crystal home just have a steep climb. the full bill reached the crevice where they hope to find a rich seam of rock crystal.
4:38 pm
sometimes you go for days even weeks where all you take home are a few little slivers bush. that's when you tell yourself good. so i found a little sliver today and that's good to us. you don't always go home with the full backpack to meet the phone, will 6 in the housing real. they find logic crystals and yesterday get high school fast squeezes himself down into the narrow cavity again, the 11 year old son slowly and joins his father and the restless shovel. that looks good morning. i've got a small one to send up a really nice one. do you have it or is outside got it. well, let's good. so let's have a look. oh wow. you get to see the light of day. what's obviously it looks good. oh yeah, yes. it's a beauty the true value won't be revealed until the crystal has been cleaned.
4:39 pm
the clearer says, the holy at the price every hole they make and the rock has to be close back up and secured. usually with largest stones, renae during the site is as much a pulse of the work as extracting the crystal. this is not a god. is there anything else coming out? are we done for today? yes. okay, hang on. we'll turn it over and then we'll lift it out. okay. did it's a really beautiful collection. it looks perfect. look okay, show that once basic social, a dell seemed easier to him very hard and this could be a once in a decade to find out his food and found the mineral collector's count selda wrote crystals to june the re, manufacturers or to trade 1st until the fines been properly documented the to put on
4:40 pm
get the 40 by 30 and yes. weighs a bit more than 20 q us to be so may have it's one should be about right. it's most annoying so long. so debbie advice, i mean, that'll probably bring in a 1000 euro, so if you have maybe even a bit more or less to go up, you said a 1000 euros. the brothers sell the precious rock crystals in the store. down in the valley, the state gets 10 percent of any sales. the national punk strict mining regulations means thursday. i can purchase a beautiful crystal here without penetrating the mountain. the fashion saffo salvo the faust under was a foam, extends across the bay jewelry manufacturing. yeah, good night is taking a look at justin homes as po conservation program. it's harvest time, the toys to so cleans of parasites before being brought to show
4:41 pm
even in ancient times. poles like these were famous and particularly prized. it says that crow patches earrings were made using poles from this muscle species to make it for me, it's important to see that they're produced in an environmentally friendly way. harmony with nature. as far as i'm concerned, this is the only sustainable tool there is and some of these for us as deep how farming has the ocean to thank for it's treasures. the delicate creatures need an intact marine environment to thrive. pups, they also play a role and maintaining it each individual waste a can filter more than a 100 meters of water every day. much like a sewage treatment plant. what the hell always does drive the ecosystem is in balance, and biodiversity reach the benefits. well this is a natural habitats. busy life, especially the younger stages of fish,
4:42 pm
you know, crabs you get see to companies in here. it's called think of the system service says, which is the technical term for what royce does do. and when they're non loan selective features, which means they're taking in water. they're removing any kind of analogy, which is there for dominant street. so they're physically and chemically cleaning this, this base every day. justin hum to harvest around $25000.00 pounds every year. it's a business of given, take in the marine ecosystem of solve yourself. nature and humans exist in harmony. if we look after nature, it looks after us and it's also a very important part of the story of pearls and what we bring to luxury. there's simply no other product out there that gives back more to the environment. i love
