very cool, thank you. I'm a WOLF investor and this presentation was very useful

[@tomasfernandez7441]

thank you

[@RickarooCarew]

ahhh gee... I have a bunch of SiC.... no worries.... the mountains behind my house are a beautiful red .. and a bunch of other colors... but we use the red stuff for gravel here along the road

[@RickarooCarew]

good video of some from my safford location... some of which is actually gem quality... all of it is 10 on the Moh's scale of hardness

[@RickarooCarew]

it's amazing what you find when you take the time to actually measure things... ;;~}

SiC has one advantage it has long lifespan till degradation
