[QUOTE="Jindy Gold, post: 39685, member: 1280"] hello. they look like the garnets i get around jindy..pretty much the exact colour as well. im not much of an expert on gemstones but ive been told by an expert down here that they are definately garnets.. as in mine are garnets. the colour is exactly the same as im getting from the moonbah river near jindy.. i also only seem to get them from the more wild part of the river that is steep and has waterfalls, up river a bit i dont get any in the slower flowing river, so i think mine are coming from the hill next to the river as its very steep and the river goes from about 4m wide up river in the slower water to about 1 meter and hard flowing over big rocks so i recon its eroding the bank more and thats exposing the garnets, but then the water flow is also breaking them up as i find plenty about 3mm in size and not much bigger..cheers pete [/QUOTE]
