A few years ago a friend worked in Moranbah and was able to collect some Moranbah Diamonds from one of the mine sites before they covered them with overburden well he called in home the other day and dropped some off for me as he is giving lapidary stuff away win for me.

Nice score :Y:

Freebies are always good :) Looks like there's a few cutters among them.

I've never cut one but I've been told the best ones have exceptional clarity and brightness for Quartz. I cut some extremely clear ones that supposedly came from somewhere near Sarina, they were bright enough that at first glance you would have said they were topaz.
 
I gave a couple to a friend who had them cut for his niece she is over the moon with her diamonds they had agreat flash. Shame so much of the area was covered over.
