[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 678944, member: 4728"] Correct me if wrong but I think sapphires are associated with volcanic rocks eg basalts. Daylesford is a volcanic area where streams have cut deep through the volcanic basalt into lower gold reef bearing slates. I would look up a geologic map of Daylesford, (should be available on line from GeoVic), to identify where creeks cross or cut through the overlying basalt. That might give you a general area of focus. [/QUOTE]
