Item Description

An aesthetic thumbnail specimen of bright, burnished, microcrystalline gold beautifully concentrated in a stringer in the middle of a sliver of pink granite, from the unique 1990s Newfoundland find, that we have got from the small lot. This cutie has a sharp spinel-twin. The pink tint on the granitic quartz and feldspar is unique.
