I'm curious as to the extent that other silver stackers on the forum may also stack/invest in gem rough? (facet grade). If so, what sort of stone ie topaz, garnet, spinel, tourmaline, saphire etc
yes opal still not a good time to buy, still has not hit lows... wait till official bad times hit aussie before buying any gemstones, we still not there yet though if you impatient can pick up parcels for 20% then what they use to go for back pre 2001, but this does not mean you can get cheaper problem is balance and timing... you want to buy the low before mass exodus of miners due to raising cost of fuel and living
