[QUOTE="Matty_K, post: 32805, member: 1525"] Hi guys, Ive read and heard of people finding small sapphires in creeks around Robertson NSW and was hoping maybe some people who have knowledge about this area could shed some light on the subject. I have heard from a couple of older guys I know that you used to be able to get them from some of the rivers around carrington tops but all the research ive done on the area has once again led me to a dead end. After reading the DPI Industrial Mineral Opportunities report the have a map of NSW showing the localities where sapphires are present but do not list the actual locations on the map they are simply represented by small blue diamonds. I am hoping some of the sites are accessible as I am from wollongong and would love to be able to fossick for some specimens without traveling too far. If anyone has any information on these locations please feel free to share that info :) Thank you all. Matt [/QUOTE]
