[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 671026, member: 4485"] You wouldn't be up closer to Cooperabung would you? There is an area there of weathered cenozoic basalt that may be where your finds are originating? Inland at Yarrowitch (~100km) there are known sapphires & rubies on another basalt area although of a different age (paleogene). Other basaltic areas of NSW can yield conundrum, zircon & garnet so some further testing would be needed to know for sure.
