[QUOTE="Dihusky, post: 470906, member: 10304"] This is an unusual one, the stone weighs 3.35ct, has an SG of 3.24-3.40, I'v measured a few times and being small get a bit of variation on my scales, 0.05ct can make a bit of a difference in the SG figure, it's gold to coffee colour and can be scratched by quartz. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/10304/1550047806_bronzite.jpg[/img] This is pointing me in the direction of Enstatite, maybe a clear version of Bronzite? It was found in Australia and according to Mindat there are a few recorded meteorite craters where Enstatite can be found. Anyone got any other ideas? [/QUOTE]
