[QUOTE="Russdee, post: 53701, member: 2056"] Don't know how to post pics just yet so can only tell.finally getting my head around grabben gullen,improved from first few visits 1 sapphire,couple of zircons and tonne of spinel, to, 18 sapphire 15 zircon and 2 tonne of spinel. Best sapphire almost a gram (sorta dog tooth but looks 70% bomb) best zircon .7 gram, best spinel 2.7 gram (happy about that) lots of greenies, and maybe a ruby ( not sure but very red and has kept it's sharp edges) real nice place when you get the feel of it, sapphires often seem a bit more Bomby than Oberon,but you don't have to bust your guts to get them. Thanks for the tips Wal. Ps varts, I just use my 9 inch angle grinder for all my faceting, they look great through my bottom of my op bundy 57.7% loop! Cheers [/QUOTE]
