    This was in a Rock shop in Mexico. It was sold as "Quartz". It seemed too heavy and cold for Quartz but the guy said it was a different kind.... It tested, later, as Sapphire! Have yet to weigh it, but it's Massive.

      White sapphires are often used as a less expensive substitute for diamonds
