[QUOTE="Wentywildman, post: 394374, member: 12044"] Hey all, new to the site. Ive recently taken up fossicking as a new hobby since Ive collected rock and fossils since I was knee high to a grass hopper. Been trying my luck out near sapphire bend at black springs. So far only one sapphire but I do have a couple of questionable finds that I would greatly appreciate a keen eye on to identify the big yellow/clear ones have a real glassy waxy shine to them. I was thinking zircon but I could be optimisticly bias. And the small green one sapphire?? Or peridot?[img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/12044/1520208476_995c75a3-8e82-4755-9dd6-46d66e62c27e.jpeg[/img] [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/12044/1520208476_89bd149f-5965-475a-bf2a-0af7248e9e79.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/12044/1520208478_e4a65a7b-1e86-49d8-8021-878339b8acfa.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/12044/1520208479_08854613-97a3-448d-a467-30b060c090fa.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
