    What are these?

    It does look a little similar, I'm thinking more likely it could be (black) garnet as @Golden ChipMunk suggested - the raw form looks almost identical to the ones I have. Who knows where and when he got them, whatever they really are... Now to dispose of them :cool:

    Is garnet able to scratch glass? I was under the impression it's relatively soft...

    What are these?

    No residue left by whatever the last stones are - they do scratch glass (remind me not to try that test again on my bloody door :confused:)... Maybe it's some type of uncut sapphire, I think those can scratch glass.

    What are these?

    I tried to take some better pictures (same background unfortunately). Fair enough, that's kind of what I expected. That's a bit shit... Trust him to collect that :rolleyes: No idea of where they were found, it could be around Big Bell in Western Australia (wherever the hell that is), it...

    What are these?

    As the title says, I'm wondering what the things in the pictures are (anybody who says 'stones', you're not helpful, I have figured that much out for myself)... A little backstory to them - they were in a very tightly sealed and almost-impossible-to-access container as part of my late father's...

    Let's not forget about these ones too: "Vers" as in a verse of poetry. Or "quelques vers sur un ver vert allant (à l'envers!) vers un verre en vair, pas en verre" - a few verses about a green worm going (upside down!) towards a drinking glass made of weird fur, not glass... Welcome that...

    Be aware of your personal SECURITY

    What has been said previously, do what you can yourself to verify who you're dealing with is reputable - check out their trading history. This isn't completely foolproof of course, not everyone has a high rate of selling. But it's still the best way to see how great a percentage of positive...

    Robbo is still there, hosting Marines now along with the local boys (and girls). Howard Springs hasn't changed - it probably never will. At least they have sealed roads now and running water too, last I heard... ;) Palmo is trying to be like certain other cities, they like to play the game of...

    The Hub is still kicking (sometimes kicking off). There's a newer development slightly further out, the location escapes me just at present but it's called Gateway (gateway to what exactly I don't know since it's actually towards Katherine) but Palmo is still doing Palmo things ;) some of those...
