Rocks from Lefty

Just finished tumbling some rocks I got fro Lefty. They came up pretty good.


Thanks Lefty :Y:

The pictures don't do them justice. Nice.

Another picture different lighting.

looks good mate well done :Y: :Y: :Y:

Thanks 7.62 Takes like 4 weeks or more. But I recon it's worth the wait.
Another lot coming sooooon another month.

its the colors that get me so bright
i haven't got the patience to wait maybe later in life :lol: :lol: :lol:

You detect for gold so you obviously have patience 7.62

mate i can sit and wait and watch for hours and hours but for some reason i cant do it with that sort of stuff

Mmmm it's all about the hunt isn't it ? 7.62

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm the anticipation the Adrenalin rush like finding a nugg just before it gets dark or the last cleanup from the banker :lol: :lol:
but all good one day soon i will find that peace
but they look fantastic and your right a photo never does them justice

Those certainly polished up well there Wishfull! I knew they would, all of them being made up mostly of silica. Very nice! :Y:

And just think, each of those (well, the majority of them anyway) is a little piece of a fossicking spot whose days are numbered - when the Rookwood weir goes ahead, the area will go under water. Then you will be one of a fairly small number of people to have come to be holding all that remains of a rather interesting little piece of Central QLD.

They look great mate.

Cheers.

Yeah they do look great, good onya Lefty.

:Y: :Y:

Looking good there Wishfull, You should receive a package this week... :Y:

They are Lefty... Jellybean Quartz(well water worn Quartz Crystals) from Inverell area... Some are that 'clear' you could cut some Beautiful Stones from them....

Some of the Smokeys I have seen from 'Inverell' area Polished and Cut are very nice indeed.. Sometimes you can skip a few grinds, especially with these....
There have been some Monster Jellybean Quartz found lately at Tingha... 3"-6" size stuff, that Size hasn't been seen for a long time...

The Amethyst comes from Kuridala, near Cloncurry...

And the Petrified Wood comes from Chinchilla area...

Im keen to see how they come up, as I haven't done any myself yet... :Y:

LW...

Second tumble. Now I am doing the polishing. Another week or so and they should be done.

Hey Wishfull, they look fantastic but can I ask what are you going to do with them, pendants etc?
