Intricate Crystalline Gold Nugget - French Gulch, California

$569.00

A beautiful and intricate cluster of gold from the French Gulch, Shasta County, California area. I don't see a lot of gold from this location and this piece is a stand out with a crystalline and leaf gold formation and a few small inclusions of white quartz. Crystalline gold is a category all its own but is often confused with gold crystals. Crystalline gold generally has a very course structure and like gold crystals, the gold is usually associated with quartz. It differs from gold crystals in that there is no defined crystal structure i.e. trigon or octahedron formations.
