>>635370No, I haven't tried testing the hardness of it, I've never been good at a scratch test and I don't really have access to the things I need off hand to determine it otherwise, considering I'm out of my backpack.
I'm headed down to Quartzite and Tucson soon though, I got there late to quartzite last year but caught most of Tucson. Hopefully I'll figure it out there, largest gem show in the world at Tucson and a big rock and mineral thing in quartzite right before, should be fun again.
>>635374I don't know, I'm wary about coming out and declaring it to be teal considering not every thinks its teal, but then again the world is cutthroat and the same people who failed to mention the teal face in it were the same ones who wanted to trade for it. I don't have a scale for weight if that's what you meant, really should get one for opals and Moldavite. I'll post a size scale in a moment. The Rubalite has a very soft termination on the top, it was this guy's pocket rock that he gave to me after I mentioned I'd gave away some super hard rouge/purple lapidolite that looked nothing like Micha. Easily the best lapidolite specimen I've ever seen, might I add.
