Stephen,
I have two pieces of Namibian from the original strike. Both are rounds. I do not have myself, but a friend has about 100 grams of rough purchased in 2007 in Tucson. If you’d like more info, let me know.

Re: Batty Barbra
We have tiny little bat that stays on our back porch in the spring and summer. We know he's back when the guano shows up on the floor. LOL

Re: Select Stones Vol. I: Members only - cut, owned, invento
This is a tourmaline I had several years ago. Origin was Mozambique. It was not cuprian. GIA told me the chromophore was Iron. Size was 9.10cts. The photo is one that I took.

Re: Happy Birthday Jon!
It was a good birthday, but a birthday is nowhere near as good as the last day of the foolishness we used to tolerate all those decades.
When I "Retired" I found I could get serious about more important things.
Lapidary, for example.
Bonding with Ignatius.
A morning walk, watching the hawks soar ...
