Rough sapphires.

PJ found the big stone yesterday, when I went with K to the Gemfest at Anakie. The other two we found 2 days before. All the little bits are what we have been finding while digging for the last 3 weeks. This is only a few of the little bits that we have found, but there isn't very much of it. Up until we found the two, we didn't have anything very good.
The big stone is 31.5 carat as it is. Not sure how big a stone it will cut, that will depend on any cracks, flaws etc in it. This is the biggest stone we have ever found.
All three stones will be different shades of green sapphire.
I included the end of a pen (biro) just to give an idea of size. The pale piece on the left is a piece of zircon.
