cracks, fissures in naturals
How much risk do you associate w/ the presence of cracks or fissures in a prospective stone? Does it make you run? Is there some treatment you apply to keep it from growing?
Some threads spoke of cracked stones that stay as they are for decades. How do you asses the presence of a crask/fissure on a prospective rock?
Maksim's posts in the jnat thread (mouthwatering rocks) showed one that broke apart that he glued back together. Is that hard to do w/ satisfaction?
The stone below shows what looks like cracks at 3/4 towards the left, and about 1/2" from the right edge. Would these make you nervous or decline?
