The Central Queensland Gemfields, situated around the appropriately named towns of Emerald, Rubyvale, Sapphire, Anakie and the Willows Gemfields, is the most productive area in the world for beautiful sapphires.
The Big Sapphire Gemfields Information Centre at Anakie is run by Neil and Sharyn O'Brien. Neil insists that the only way to 'divine' sapphires is with a pick and shovel. Big Sapphire caters for school excursions and coach groups to the area, as well as organising fossicking licenses and camping permits.
