[QUOTE="Ditch, post: 316592, member: 9183"] Had a chance to stop at the spot that I found the specimens yesterday. Took me several hours to locate what I think is the area that the pegmatite is located. Had a bit off a scratch around with the limited tools I had. Seems to be a vein around 50 - 70 mm wide at the surface. A fair bit of Mica & Feldspar around it. Did not find any other crystals apart from one small needle that seemed to have a green tinge to it. Hopefully it might open up a bit & there is something worth the time & effort. There is around 3 meters of it exposed at the surface before it disappears under the dirt. Was keen to go back out there over the weekend with a few more tools but the weather has closed in so it will have to wait.
