[QUOTE="Digemall, post: 370703, member: 11444"] Hi all . Family and myself are new to fossicking . We just come back from black springs- saphire bend . In a afternoon the kids managed to dig what we know for sure are 2 small blue saphires also turned up roughly a dozen or so octahedronal prisms of some type of transparent crystals mainly red , clear or a combination of both(thinking garnet) ? There were also some honey colour tinted transparent crystals and a metalic-copperish looking thing(looks natural not man made) that sort of resembles a peice of tree root and is very heavy for its size?. Nothing found was over a few mm roughly but they had fun. Trying to identify everything except the saphires , any input on what they could be would be great . If i work how to post photos of them on here i will.. thanks in advance... [/QUOTE]
