[QUOTE="Wally69, post: 437832, member: 1916"] Stone has now been transferred onto another dop so the crown can be cut. I mentioned I took it outside to look at the colour, this photo is what I see under my work light, where has the blue gone ??? [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/1916/1536312398_aee9162a-a8d3-4b6b-be16-cd375073f6b2.jpg[/img] You can also see a bubbly veil inclusion that was a major contributor to the reduction in size in the rough stone. When I roughed the stone into shape I was hopeful that the next couple of cuts would take it out completely. :poop: [brick emoji] [brick emoji] it will be close. :argh: I have another on another face that that might cause me some grief, but it is a fine whispy one and may only be noticible to me.
