I Finally Facet These Montana Sapphires 1 Year After Finding Them

Video Description

All but one of these stones were found during my 2023 Montana trip which when I did my "Finding Sapphires at Two Sapphire Mines in Montana" video. These are some of the better sapphires I still had to cut from that trip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ALGX_OXcy8&t=503s The first 4 stone that I facet are heat treated sapphires from the Gem Mountain Sapphire Mine. The next two pinks are unheated sapphires from there. The next stone after them is a heat treated stone from the Montana Blue Jewel Sapphire Mine, and the last two are unheated stones from that location.
