So I injured my hand and can’t cut for a few days, so I thought I’d share some images of more esoteric gemstones to challenge those following to identify the rough. (Yes I know what it is…)
So what’s your guess?

Yellow Apatite, or maybe sunset quarts
Bingo! This is a piece of apatite that is in my queue to cut.
Heliotrope?
nope
Reminds me of topaz.
Color is similar to imperial, but the natural structure and cleavage planes are not.
I am bamboozled. Tourmaline?
(Hope your hand gets better soon!)
Tourmaline is close given the shape of the crystal.
