Native Gold in Quartz with Bustamite and Sphalerite
2400-level, Argentine vein, Idarado Mine, Telluride, Ouray District, San Miguel Co., Colorado
10cm x 3.3cm x 1.04cm
Description/Interesting Notes:
A rich example of native gold from this famed Colorado locality!!! This specimen consists of a quartz matrix that hosts significant inclusions
of native gold throughout, in association with sphalerite and bustamite!!! Both sides of this specimen are polished and both show a significant
amount of native gold!!! The native gold is present as several scattered areas that
show dense, localized networks of gold inclusions!!! You can also see partially exposed areas of gold on
the edges of the specimen as well!!! There is more visible gold than it appears in the pics - both sides of the specimen show prominent
areas of native gold in person!!! There are several masses of tan to pinkish tan bustamite in association as well as some small areas of
sphalerite!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
