[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 89005, member: 2976"] Cheers Heatho. Yes, it really gets under my skin, the nerve of these people. It's just fraud, taking credit for something that isn't theirs. Tarnishing our reputation in order to maintain their own. It makes me angry but I guess the small digger out there would be mad not to take the best price if offered. Tourists can be relied upon to come and look but not necessarily relied upon to buy. If you're trying to make ends meet and need the money..... Same friend is cutting that zircon, he remarked how difficult it often is to get Australian zircon. Hmm - still only early days but the same situation continues....I'm yet to turn up a blue stone. Various shades of green/green with patches of yellow and zircons but I've not yet seen a blue. I still reckon Jim Elliot is on the money with his theory of sapphire formation and distribution.
