[QUOTE="Colb20173, post: 647717, member: 22592"] Thanks for the kind words. :)Yup, I was pleasantly surprised to see the variety of shapes in such tiny pieces. I guess that's normal but it still made the use of a microscope worth it. I'd wondered if I was seeing micro gems in some of my samples. Reds, oranges, and light greens are present in many. Peridot for the latter perhaps? I've kind of been dismissing the orange ones as iron stained quartz but have no real basis for doing so. OK to post those here or should they be over in gemstone posts? [/QUOTE]
