loved seeing how small the mine was, simple. also the simple heat treating process that seems to happen right there on sight. great video, would love to see more small mine of different stones and process. thanks!
i really liked this video, what was the location of this?
i went to sri lanka last year and i found a pretty big saphire and a tiny ruby in the gampola river near my house. I really enjoyed your video cause i always wanted to know how they processed gems, but i didnt have any time to go see for myself.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm not sure of the exact location but will add it as soon as possible. I know the owner of the cutting outfit in Sri Lanka who made this. I have yet to visit but am looking forward to the chance. Did you get your stones cut while you were there?

Thanks, Ms. Perham. You don't see much other than diamond and gold mining on television. I appreciate your choice to share sapphires with us.
Loved your book. I enjoyed meeting you at your store.
I would love to see any video you'd care to share about your Maine tourmaline mining. :-)
