Description

A really striking crystallized gold specimen associated with brassy, cubic striated pyrite crystals and minor snow white quartz which makes a nice contrast.

The piece weighs 14.9 grams and is heavy in the hand; the vast majority of the specimen is pure gold.
I would visually estimate that it contains at least two-thirds or 10 grams of pure gold, maybe even more, but of course there is no guarantee.
