Very pretty colour Wally looks really nice.

I'm pretty much with you Wally to be honest. But everyone who is more experienced than me says I should slice it and hope I get something out of it. Maybe I'll hold it until I find a better specimen and more knowledge and experience. Jay

Thanks. Not sure what you mean?

145 carat Sapphire (bomb) multicolor dug in Reward, Qld. Mostly green with yellow and vibrant blue section.

Freshly dug saph and zircon. CQ gemfields

Matt at old micks gems in rubyvale. Charges $35 a carat (minimum 35 a stone)

Before and after 3 sapphires and a zircon from recent gemfields trip. Was expecting largest to cut a bit bigger but couldn't ignore a flaw in bottom. All round brilliant cuts more pics coming later.

Next time I'll show before and after cleaning, some come out pretty terrible.

Yeah, more silver there :Y: Found a 1921 thrippy in really nice condition shallow in almost a natural cave type overhang. Wasn't much else and I think I've covered most of the area so yeah pretty few and far between, but still, a bit of silver for the treasure chest haha. Might go back when the...

Some amethyst and other quartz I found today at Lowmead.
