Found this when classifying material in a stream... - specific gravity seems right, hardness seems right, color/hue and translucency seems right - but figured others out there may have found a few diamonds in the rough?

Let me know what you think 🤔

Nice stone - whatever it is. I have had a couple of raw diamonds, and they feel greasy. They will pop right out of you fingers if you hold it between your first 2 fingers and squeeze it (and watch where it lands). It looks like it might be a Topaz crystal Either way, nice stone - I love stones!
