Native Gold with Quartz

Jalisco, Mexico

8.62cm x 6.3cm x 3.6cm

Ex. Donald C. Gabriel Collection No. 2648

Ex. A. E. Seaman Mineral Museum


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare, old time example of native gold from this seldom referenced locality!!! This specimen consists of an iron-stained quartz matrix that hosts numerous tiny areas of native gold!!! The native gold is present as scattered submillimeter masses both on and included in the quartz matrix!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope one can see a significant number of tiny masses of native gold in addition to what the pictures show!!! This specimen is from the A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum and the collection of Donald C. Gabriel!!! This specimen retains its detailed label from Gabriel that notes(among other details) that this specimen had been acquired "From Griffiths, Gomez Palacio, Dgo. Mex. April 23, 1971" and that it was a "hard to get locality"!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
