[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 106549, member: 487"] Was talking to Barney last night Lefty and he said it was hard and heavy like an Ironstone, could be Ilmenite maybe??? Here's a list of minerals from the area. There are heaps of rounded Iron Spinel type pebbles there, looks like one is protruding from the bottom left of the pic maybe?? My mate found a chunk of Pegmatite (I think) with a rounded Iron pebble wrapped in Quartz crystals. Very interesting place. Looks like a trip to the Australian Museum maybe in order. Sapphire major ore Diamond minor ore Ferroan Spinel minor gangue Ilmenite minor gangue Chromium Spinel minor gangue Cr/Al Spinel minor gangue Zircon minor gangu [/QUOTE]
