Between Lefty, Heatho and the rain, it got the better of me and I pulled out an old box of rocks I had as a child.

It is only a very small chip and has just a little sparkle when left alone

Put it up to the light and the sparkle disappears

Cut away the dirt and I had just enough to throw it on a dop and shape the bottom

Looks better with no light and not sure how it will go when I cut the top but it is a mass of blue sparkles under the loup

a good way to spend a wet evening

[QUOTE="Wally69, post: 253538, member: 1916"] Between Lefty, Heatho and the rain, it got the better of me and I pulled out an old box of rocks I had as a child. It is only a very small chip and has just a little sparkle when left alone [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/1916/1465048005_image.jpg[/img] Put it up to the light and the sparkle disappears [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/1916/1465048025_image.jpg[/img] Cut away the dirt and I had just enough to throw it on a dop and shape the bottom [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/1916/1465048073_image.jpg[/img] Looks better with no light and not sure how it will go when I cut the top but it is a mass of blue sparkles under the loup [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/1916/1465050561_image.jpg[/img] :D :D :D a good way to spend a wet evening :D :D :D [/QUOTE]
