Colorado Quartz Mine
Whitlock Mining District, Mariposa County, California, USA

The native gold displays areas of flat faces which reflect bright shine with some natural beautiful reddish iron oxide stanning on the gold. There are sections on the edge of the gold crystal that exhibit cubed arsenopyrite crystals which is a very rare combinations of two crystallized minerals together. The white quartz near its bottom makes the gold pop and bring out its natural aesthetics. The arsenopyrite crystals are display some luster from its cubic surfaces. The reverse side is just as beautiful and can be displayed on both sides to enjoy. Gold specimens from this locality are very rare and believed to have produced the world's best rare gold crystals.
