Gold Crystal Elongated Spinel Twin on Lead Matrix
Placer County, California
An unusually rare example of native gold here displays elongated spinel twin crystal with geometrical morphology. What makes this gold crystal rare are the multiple pattered crystal structures which lead to a sharp point on its tip. These unique striations are quite robust and add a great deal of complexity and beauty to this gold crystal. The reverse side is slightly different crystal morphology where it’s more flat surface and displays the native golds rich buttery yellow color and good luster. The gold crystal has points on both ends and is doubly terminated and its bottom section encases the native gold with a native lead matrix.
