Native Gold on Quartz 

Calaveras County, California

This unusual gold specimen is a perfect example of hydrothermal gold deposited on quartz with sulfides surrounding the native gold crystals. What makes this specimen unique are the highly lustrous gold crystals with textured morphology and multi layered growth patterns. Some of the gold formed into clustered leaf plates with sparkly crystal faces. The gold specimen is rich in thick veins of native gold going through the quartz and is visible mostly on all sides of the quartz matrix. That white quartz matrix provides a excellent natural contrast to the native gold. This specimen is a great representation for its locality.
