I have been fossicking with my family since I was an anklebiter and it was way back then that I contracted rock fever.
If you can see through it, I want to dig for it!
My passion is sapphires, although I've never found anything good enough to really brag about.. what a shame.. my best was a beautiful light green party that cut to 0.5ct.
Our hunting grounds used to be Rubyvale and we've dug for more stone types around Australia than I can list, but these days we head out Inverell and Glen Innes way. I'm always looking for the perfect spot so if you know of one, pretty please share! I'm trying my hardest to get my better half to catch the fever too!
I have 2 toddlers who are already obsessed with their Pa's rock collection and we are heading out for our first dig later this month.
Thanks for having me and I hope to meet some of you out in the field sometime!arty:
