FIRE CREEK!!

A curious crystallized Gold specimen from the now closed Fire Creek mine, Lander Co. NV.  Small .5 mm slab showing fantastic dendritic Gold crystal growth.  This piece illustrates the relationship of the Quartz vein matrix in contact with Basalt on one side and Calcite on the other side.  This mine is one of the few recent Gold mines in Nevada that mined visible Gold (VG).  Most Nevada Gold mines are mining micron Gold, only recovered using Cyanide leaching technology. A Specific Gravity determination yielded 3.4 Grams Gold
