Hey I know what a crystal inclusion and needle inclusions are and wanted to know how can we figure out WHAT type of material our little inclusions are. U see I want to know if I got a baby garnet inside my rock or another tiny diamond ect ect.
Just curious?

Kimberly....

Most commonly a needle is just an elongated diamond crystal. It''s a stone by stone, inclusion by inclusion call, it could be something else.

Colored crystal inclusions could be a number of things. If it is white (colorless) it is diamond, most likely - at least as far as I know.

You could get some pictures of your diamond''s birtmarks

For the obsessed, such things are nice enough to frame, but I am not jumping to conclusions...

Oh, I am clearly obsessed about many things and proud about that trait, but this is not one of them. I was simply curious as I thought it would be fun to have a garnet in there as that''s my love''s birthstone. Hehehe

Totally off topic but I had to know if that is a guniea pig with pancakes on his head in your avatar? He is soooo cute. I have 2 piglets myself, that''s probably why I noticed!
