BLACK ROCK with GOLDCAB
Welcome to the Gold of Eldorado!Here\'s a thick cab made from a mix of black, white, and clear quartz. Internally, golden hairs, larger blebs, and small star-like particles sparkle inside much of the matrix. I guarantee the natural composition of this cab. It\'s very unusual material. Because of it\'s thickness (4.8 mm) and the fairly-equal amount of gold showing on both faces, I polished it all the way around. If you\'re drawn to exotic rocks from the western U.S. goldfields, maybe this is your stone. For aficionados of all-things-gold, I\'ve priced it @ $8.70 per carat.As proprietor/operator of this store, I\'ve been peddling native gold and platinum products for over forty years. For almost half that epoch, I was a full-time placer-miner and gold nugget jewelry craftsman. There\'s just something about hunting for (and working with) this crazy, beautiful metal. For one thing, any normal (or abnormal) person can go out into the western mountains and hunt for gold with a realistic chance of meeting with some success. As you stroll through my store, expect to find lots of useful prospecting information and stories based upon my goldfield experiences. If you don\'t know much about gold, gold ores/gold quartz, lapidary,gemology,mineralogy, geology, or mining for gold; if you don\'t care for jewelry at all, justbuy andcachethis wild rock. Weight:34.2Grains (Troy) -11Carats Dimensions:13.5mmX12.5mm X 4.8 mm If you\'re unfamiliar with gold quartz, it\'s essentially gold ore...high-grade gold ore. When conditions are just right,metallic gold-crystals form (grow)in quartz veins. This occurs as ultra-hot, aqueous, silica and mineral-rich solutions cool.Metals, like gold, than precipitate and harden. This is part of a process known as metallogenesis. Naturalweathering fromricher portions of a gold vein ultimately produce broken-off pieces of gold quartz, nuggets, gold flakes, flour gold, and colloidial gold. Vein filling whichretainshost matrix(that is,quartz)and alsoharborsit\'s precious cargo,gold,andisdense enough, becomesone of theearth\'s more highly-prizedgemstones. Then, just toliven things up a bit, the mineral characteristics of gold-bearing stone vary from vein tovein resulting in differentmatrix variations (i.e. color, density, et al). Themixed palette of colors found in this stone are astounding.

You won\'t find any.Ideal in nativeminerals with visible gold, notreplicas, not\'paint-ons\'.I don\'tpeddle \'simulated\' specimens madewith minute amounts of gold or no real gold at all. No fake nuggets here, folks. I was a professional placer miner myself and personally have bought stuff with gold painted on it. Some so-called\'natural gold quartz\'specimens acquired had tiny chunks of placer goldgluedinto the vugs of barren rock. If folks want to fake their specimens, then it should be mandatory they advertise their products as simulations or replications. All of my advertised specimens,slabs, cabochons, gold oreset alare authentic and containnaturally-occurring, native gold and/orare composedalmost entirelyof naturally-occurring gold (i.e. gold nuggets, gold flakes,wire gold specimens).The purity of this gold will vary, but if it\'s from California, you can count on it being fairly high, from 70% to 90% pure on average. For comparision,a 14Kgold wedding band is 58% pure gold.Theorigin of thisgemstoneis a veinsystem somewhere in theSierraNevadaMtns. ofCalifornia.Thanks forchecking out our digs.
