Gold Nugget
Caborca Municipality, Sonora Desert, Mexico
This solid gold nugget exudes unique charm with its rugged, uneven surfaces. Its front displays polished, rounded facets interrupted by many small pockets that lend it an intriguing look. The reverse offers a less textured finish with wider, flatter, rounded sections, making each side distinctly different. Both surfaces shimmer with a radiant luster and a vivid golden-yellow shade. Local gold here achieves up to 98% purity, an exceptional rarity in nature.
