Thank you. I know it's likely not a diamond, but it seems to have some of the characteristics. It's hexagonal and appears to have trigons in the pictures.I dunno but if you tested it with a diamond tester and it tested as a diamond - that right there makes it even more interesting.
Nice find!
Burleson Texas. I know there has only been one diamond found in Texas in 1911, but there are a lot of igneous rocks where I found this one and I thought I had found blue ground in this area that had been excavated. Most is weathered and yellow, but definitely igneous rock with breccia and weathered olivine.
I said it wrong. I meant that I thought it was octahedron when it was still in the rock because it looked like a pyramid protruding from the rock. I think it's too gold colored to be a diamond. From what I have read, raw diamonds reflect shades of gray until cut. I think it's just a pyrite cube.Hard to tell, If it's hexagonal it's not a diamond, they are cubic. If you have a piece of quartz see if it scratches that. Now if you wife has a nice blue sapphire ring it would scratch that. Oh wait, bad idea.
