Crystal Gold on Quartz
Eagles Nest Mine, Placer County, California
This stunning specimen is a perfect example of a pristine native gold on quartz from a rare locality. The gold crystals are extremely lustrous with flat leaf wire like crystals. The gold is sitting on top of white quartz. Each crystal of gold is like mirrors reflecting light twice as bright back. Its sharp geometric crystal formations are complex and fascinating on both sides of the gold crystal. This highly collectable and prime specimen of native gold is a must have for any mineral collector.
