[QUOTE="Keen Ken, post: 331744, member: 211"] I have an old gemological text book that lists Caboolture as a source of gem beryl. It does not mention the variety or the quality. Always wondered where. Beryl usually is associated with pegmatites and as far as I can remember is formed through hydrothermal action. Very interested about the Quartz crystals. Send me a PM if you like and I'll find the book and get the exact details, and other finds I had in the vicinity some 30 years ago. Torrington NSW has deposited of Aquamarine and emerald, might be similar geologically. [/QUOTE]
