[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 434581, member: 2976"] Yeah, it might be just a generic name for round boulders found on Australian sapphire fields, regardless of different rock types between different areas - got a very Aussie - sounding name :) I have photos of them but they are old and must be in a format that won't upload to this forum any more. They always used to but now only more recently taken ones will. There are some really big ones around, one standing in front of the Blue Gem caravan park office in Sapphire and another making up part of a wall and fireplace base in the Rubyvale pub. The really big ones oftrn have the same glazed appearence but look to have been part of a "slab" of rock. Cheers [/QUOTE]
