The first one is all about "atypical bead" (aBC) cultured pearls: https://www.gia.edu/gia-news-resear...on-cultured-pearls-australian-pinctada-maxima
The second one is a short review of an exhibit in Melbourne: https://www.gia.edu/exhibition-review-lustre-pearling-australia
Don't think either have been shared anywhere yet so apologies if they have but after looking around the GIA website over the weekend for some info I found both pearl related subjects.
