Gold Nugget
Caborca Municipality, Sonora Desert, Mexico
This dense gold nugget showcases a remarkable character through its unevenly textured form. The primary side reveals smooth, contoured surfaces studded with tiny pockets that elevate its visual interest. The back side displays a gentler texture with more expansive, flattened, rounded zones, distinguishing each face. Both sides glow with a lustrous finish and a saturated golden-yellow color. Gold here attains up to 98% purity, an uncommon purity level in nature.
