Analysis of zircon crystals

Looking at the situation sideways (and Rob Ixer is a *it*it) might it be that the zircon crystals in the bluestones make them special? If it was a pre-existing circle that was transported - and Thom constantly reminds his readers what excellent sailors the megalith makers were - then we should expect something - some mark - to have been left behind.

Not all have zircon though I assume. There are all sorts, from different, mostly undiscovered precise locations.

Which is an inconvenient truth. Why, if not due to glaciation?

That was a well argued incisive attack .
I’m only sorry it was I who mentioned him .
The Ixer ,Bevins , Pearce team is providing us with real evidence and if anyone is going to provide a possible solution to the transport problem ,they are the most likely at the moment .Have a look at the CV and publications then contrast with the “saw it from a bus a “ and other rock art related problems , then consider where n*t**t is most appropriate .
