[QUOTE="enigmaticgnome, post: 204133, member: 6101"] Thanks so much Heatho! I potentially have found my first sapphire :D Even if it's not, I'll settle for the zircons. Just out of curiosity, so I can learn to pick out the gems and not have to rely on bothering everyone on the forums too often, what makes you say you think its a sapphire and not a citrine? Also that other zircon, I think I can see how it's different from the quartz, but not sure I could apply that to all the little bits of quartz I have. I know by experience, I'll get there eventually :) [/QUOTE]
