<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1621498, member: 15199&quot;]Interesting story, a few years ago I purchased a parcel of 500 grams of crystal zircons for faceting from a trusted dealer in Africa, and all went well until the package was diverted to Homeland defense anti-terrorist department. Zircons come as &#039;High&#039; zircons containing various amounts of Uranium and Thorium and &#039;low&#039; Zircons where these have decayed to low or unmeasurable amounts. The package of &#039;high&#039; zircons were slightly radioactive, so they called me and asked how long I had known the person, was he Muslim, etc. and then they sent them back via England to Africa and he had to answer questions with his government. Then about a month later, they flew back via England to Texas, where the US decided they were within natural levels and sent them on to me Fedex. I still have much of the parcel. The high zircons have a higher density and Refractive index than the &#039;low&#039;, so they sparkle like diamonds.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
