“Specking” – Bush to Beach Extended Story

Did you catch our recent bush to beach trip with Caravanning Queensland?

Here we delve a little deeper into the art of “specking”. It’s an easy way to find gem stones in the Gem Fields.

Scotty meets specker Zane to get some top tips on how to find the next big gem. His advice is to go specking after rain, walk into the sun, look for the glassy looking stones and, if all else fails, enjoy the walk!

Zane has only been specking for a few months but some of his best finds include a 503 carat sapphire and 700 carat zircon… will Scotty be as lucky?
