George, glad to see you're back in touch. I, too, would like to see one of the large stones a "fancy". It would be a just reward for our patience. However, even if one is not, which would be a fluke anyway given the size of the sample, what is important is whether there are yellow, green, or pink diamonds of any size. What i'll be looking for is to see if the first percentages reported are sustained. If they are, then it will be reasonable to assume that larger colored stones will be found because it will mean the correct chemistry exists to create colors and we have proof now of large stones. There is no reason of which I am aware that would link color with small size. The only thing that comes to mind would be if, for some reason, the colored stones showed faults that led to breakage but outside of a reference to such a condition for brown stones I have seen nothing in the literature.
