Spinel Twinned Gold Crystal 
Hunker Creek Yukon, Canada
 
This very rare specimen of native gold crystal displays well defined spinal twinned crystals with large flat slightly hoppered crystal faces. The reverse side displays octahedron crystals and flat and highly lustrous crystal faces -some being cubed- which are quite rare. The specimen is lustrous all around with a very bright buttery yellow color. Specimens of this quality are exhibited in the Royal Ontario Museum and this example is an older find from Hunker Creek area.
