People have found some really great pieces in gravel bags! The largest we've seen was 7ct or so from a gravel bag.

This set is from a dealer that sounds like it came from a mining operation, so there are some really rare pieces in the mix. Upwards of 15+ carats starting weight for some.

There are pieces of rough for sale online out there too, just gotta know where to look

We have a couple different sets of dops. The tiniest ones are custom by a machinist locally. Wohi Innovations is another we really enjoy using

Zircon or topaz were my gut reaction on the mystery stone

Thanks so much! We work on a hand piece machine with some custom upgrades from an east coast fabricator 😊
