Gold Nugget Crystals are the rarest form of natural gold. The gold specimens in this category is not what is called "crystalline gold", but instead is referred to by collectors as "gold crystals", meaning the gold is formed into well defined crystals. These extremely rare gold specimens are incredibly intricate and delicate. Some are very thin, so they have a lot of surface area for the weight of the specimen. This type of gold nugget is so rare that it is usually not sold by weight. Instead it is sold by the size and the rarity of the specimen. On many of these gold nugget crystals you will see trigons, octohedrons, dendritic leaf type formations, wire gold intertwined like a tapestry with other wire gold running at different angles to each other, and all covered with minute gold crystals. It is fascinating to look at the incredible formations of these gold nuggets.
I have put together the best collection of these gold nugget crystals that I have seen anywhere. No gold collection would be complete without a couple of these extremely rare gold specimens.
