Founded on May 16, 1910, through the Organic Act (Public Law 179), USBM's missions ...
A hexagonal mineral, Be<sub>3</sub>Al<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>6</sub>O<sub>18</sub>; green, blue-green, and other pale tints; in granite pegmatites, mica schists, and an accessory mineral in felsic igneous rocks; the chief source of beryllium. Transparent and colored gem varieties include emerald, aquamarine, morganite, heliodor, golden beryl, bixbite, and vorobievite.
