Thanks for your honesty Tim , like seriously humbling . And that was a fantastic idea to check your discarded material pile . beautiful return on your efforts , and the curiosity to check.. Love the work you'r doing Tim , see you soon . Cheers
Wow. I would have liked to see a lot more in this video . You could have made it 30 minutes and shown more. We would have all enjoyed seeing it. Your content is always top notch and you have come alone way in improving the video quality. Thanks again Tim. Always enjoy what you post.
That is simply amazing Tim! I have a few questions, so forgive me as I know very little about gems of Rubyvale apart from Sapphires are found there. So what is " Billy Rock" and what coloured Zircons do you find in your mine? I know that The Harts Range is usually a light pink colour and they usually fade due to light. When I'm digging for Honey Citrine in Reedy Creek at Eldorado Victoria, I've found small zircons which are small and red not good for faceting. Cheers Cliff
Hi Cliff a billy is any rock over maybe 4 kg, zircons come in clear champagne, beer bottle brown, orange, and some red, and all shades of those colours, Cheers Tim.
Tim, I think you found more sapphires, when you were shaking and flipping the screen ... and finding them on top. You seem to get more when you use that technique, especially with the zircons.
Awsome tim are zircons worth cashing in have been finding heaps lately lots of browns dark reds and little pink ones need to do more reading some are nealy black so would that be a garnet love your vids buddy always learning from u 😊😊
Good on you for going back over your "rubbish" pile. I fossick at the Miners Cottage and usually get a few worth getting cut and some polish and a few spinels. Do you allow visitors at your site?

Yes that was old concentrate.
@@timsadventures9888 I imagine it would also help with the new wash? The Asian's always do it that way.
Woow!! So interesting!!
Glad you think so!
Always thought you smashed through them pretty quick. Eyes on the money stones. lol
after 11 years of digging you can tell which are good

Dark ones could be spinel if they shine red, and yes they are worth keeping for cutting
