My Diamond mine

[Whiteshiva]

Sorry to bust your bubble, but from the pictures, I can guarantie you that

1) it is not a meteorite (they are hard as hell, and do not contain carbon).
2) it is not diamonds (not found in coal).

Doesn't mean what you have found is without value, but just don't get your hope up too high.

Try to get hold of a piece of quartz and see if it scratches that. If it doesn't, then that is probably what it is (quartz - Si02).

The Beaches in Luzone are crap! You should try the beaches in Visayas (like Moalboal in Cebu, Mandaue, Bohol, Palawan, Ilo-ilo). They're truly amazing and beautiful. It will blow your mind. The beach ain't grey/or whitish some are really white... long stretches of white sand. :_)

A fantastic read. Can't wait for the gold mine story!

What's with the odd grammar/syntax? For narrative effect?

Anyway, nice adventure, hope there's some value in that black stuff. Did you check the going rate for philippinite?

What's with the odd grammar/syntax?

English is not his first language, probably not his second or third either, so he's doing pretty good I reckon

Nice read. At first thought the black charcoal in-bed was a tree trunk that got burned in a forest fire years ago and the river washed it out. Made for good reading and always interesting when someone posts fotos to match story. Great job.

Thanks
