Had a pic of a Zircon found at Mud Tank on my Face Book page recently and was gob smacked at the size of it . It was the size of a house brick and weighed some two Kilos.....It was in a matrix form but was very evident that it was Zircon. The biggest I have ever seen there was about the size of a large orange, so there are some massive samples out there by the looks of it. Wouldn't mind a house brick size specie in my gemstone cabinets for sure.
