@Cerridwyn Not only did I know that, but I also know that diamonds are common (unlike sapphires), and expensive only due to a deliberately induced rationing (can you say DeBeers?).
Still, the best thing on that list is grapes. You can’t make decent wine out of those others, not even the opals.
this poll is off to a rocky start.
You all do know a Ruby is a reddish-pink sapphire right?
@Cerridwyn No I didn’t. That is the real reason we all turn to Casemates, for illumination!

I wanted to make a quartz/quarts of grapes joke. Neither the stone or the joke is precious.
@browncj7 Our wine is produced with the finest quartz of grapes you’ll ever find. 4/5 Dentists Disapprove.
