[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 444049, member: 2976"] Just a quick glance at the shape of the smaller stones in the background reminds me of sapphires a bit. I've not handled a lot of tourmaline but none of the pieces that I have really look much like any of those. Top photo, small stone in the top right hand corner of the pic - a passing glance would have me saying "that looks like a sapphire". Maybe Lucas has had the good fortune to stumble across something not yet recorded in Australia? Whether it's worth anything or not, that would be a blast! :cool: [/QUOTE]
