Native beryllium is fairly rare and appears as a silver gray metallic either massive or in thin needles.

Thanks Luke, As I thought, Google doesn't have any idea what they're doing.

They used to produce Beryllium here in the 1960's. They mined beryl from pegmatites and processed it for the Beryllium content. I never heard of pure Beryllium being found. All I know.

I wouldn't think so, has to be processed.
