Gold on Quartz

Item Description

I've honestly never seen a specimen from this obscure locality, but it comes with an attribution label from Professor Russell Honea of the University of Colorado stating it was from the collection of Dr. E. M. Howard. The piece features micro sharp lustrous, flattened octahedra of Gold in Quartz with altered micaceous contact. If you're a Colorado collector, a Gold collector, or just interested in native elements from the U.S., don't miss out on this unusual piece from a lesser known Gold producing district in Colorado.
