Neato! Is that one that was found in Wyoming?

Can't talk about location...sorry.

[old digger]

That's okay! Understand.

How cool is that Jim !

 

[Jim in Idaho]

Really cool! You can imagine I'm jacked. These are good guys...they work hard. Hope they find a boatload. They absolutely love my jig!

When I first saw this, my brain said "sapphire" but when I look at the close ups of it, it looks more "greasy" AWESOME find! Any possibility of posting a weight?

Hey Jim, was the jig the one that jumps up and down?

 

[Jim in Idaho]

Yup...though the whole jig doesn't jump up and down...LOL, If you go to my channel, the jig is actually the one shown in the video under "jig kit prototype".

Oh....HV, you're thinking of the first dry jig. No, they were using one of the water units. I haven't sold any plans or machines in the dry jig line....not even offering any yet. Have lots more testing to do. I want things right before I sell plans or machines.

They never mentioned the weight.....they're being pretty quiet about the whole thing. I didn't want to ask too many questions.

That is really cool. Pink diamonds are worth a ridiculous amount of money from what I've heard.

Well, sadly for my customer, the gem isn't diamond. But, the good news is it's gem-grade spinel, which itself can be worth from $100 to $1,000/carat in finished stones. Not diamond, but considering how many they are recovering, not too bad, either. They still have several kimberlite intrusions to prospect and test.

It looks similar to a sun stone....
