Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent example of native gold from Venezuala!!! This specimen consists of highly complex single crystal of native gold!!!
The crystal has a complex, modified habit that exhibits some rare tetrahexahedral faces
(think of a cube but with shallow, four-sided pyramids on each cube face!)!!! The crystal has well
defined faces all around with some well defined tetrahexahedral termination faces!!! The other
sides of the crystal appear to exhibit some shallowly hoppered features and other curious details!!! This
specimen is complete all around!!! This specimen has brilliant luster and a bright golden hue!!! The gold from
this find is remarkably pure as well, with some crystals assaying at 99.6% pure!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd!!!
