I had one of the sapphires I found in Main Creek years ago cut recently, and when I took it back home I realised it had fairly strong colour change between natural light and artificial light.
The first photo is taken by the window, in natural light. You can see the stone is fairly gray, but in a shade of blue. The second photo shows the same stone under artificial light indoors. It is clearly pale violet!
Stone the crows!
Can you bring it to the Back Creek meeting please.
Love to see it for real.
No worries, I’ll try to remember!
Very nice indeed Miguel , wouldn’t mind a look at that one myself .
Blue to violet! Very nice stone 
Wow thats just magic mate well done
Nice! Yes, I’ve seen a few. They’re nowhere near as rare as alexanderites.
Can alexanderites be found in north east tassie? How would you even differentiate one from the variety of gems that come out of those rivers? Just curious (given how rare they are).
