[QUOTE="JudeT, post: 625720, member: 22026"] Hi everyone, I'd be grateful for any opinions on this little gemstone from Grabben Gullen. I've photographed it against 5mm grid paper and it comes in at just over 2ct. Specific gravity is around 3.9 but I don't have accurate enough scales to state that with any certainty. I'm leaning towards zircon or tourmaline rather than sapphire, but any opinions would be appreciated: I'm new to this. Apologies for the lines that my little lightbox inserts.
