Wire Gold Cluster
Belshazzar Mine, Quartzburg, Boise County, Idaho
This remarkable native gold specimen immediately draws attention with its bold cluster of thick, but short wire-like gold crystals. The wires are densely intertwined and layered, forming a complex three-dimensional structure with exceptional texture and depth. Crisp crystal faces and sharp terminations are visible throughout, while outward-projecting wires enhance the specimen’s dramatic geometry. A bright metallic sheen accentuates the vivid buttery-yellow color, causing the entire piece to shimmer under light. From the renowned Belshazzar Mine in Idaho, this specimen exemplifies one of gold’s rarest and most visually striking natural crystal habits.
