I knew a old surveyor that had a whole bag of these beauties, at the time when he was woking at the mine they were unwanted, lol.

I followed the story on this one and I think it remains uncut due to fractures within the stone.  I could have the wrong stone but I'm pretty sure this was the one.  Still wouldn't mind it in my sieve!
