Gold Nugget
Humboldt County, Nevada
This exceptional gold nugget displays rounded edges with nicely crystallized interior surfaces. In some areas milky white quartz id attached which exhibits an incredible contrast. The color is an saturated rich buttery yellow and very lustrous in some areas. Its robust crystals developed into clusters with complex overlapping growth patterns. The reverse side also displays some quartz with large lustrous flat surfaces. Some short but thick branches of native gold provide the gold specimen with three-dimensional crystallized features.
