Hi.

I am curious if anybody are able to tell me what these inclusions may be from these two images. The stone is apparently a Nigerian spessartite.

I had thought they may have been some sort of liquid inclusions but I'm not sure weather that can be based on a photo alone and weather these images are good enough and of enough magnification.
The idea they may be liquid inclusions are only based on the similarities on the images here and here. Only because of the resemblance of parallel broken lines.
Anyway thanks for looking.
