If I knew then what I know now I would have bought some when there in 1985! Was even offered some stones, sort of "off the books", by a woman at a gift shop waiting to go to the airport, but being ignorant of the gem in general and not knowing what I would be buying I passed. I was then paranoid about being either scammed, robbed or arrested until we got on the plane!! LOL. What an idiot!
But look at the story here about the giant stones being found of late. Holy Smokes!
