Crystalline, leaf Gold in Quartz matrix. Gold occurs as a dense accumulation of leaves, flakes, and ribbons. Gold is bright and exhibits an orangish-yellow color. There is a slight suggestion of dendritic crystalline growth. The blue-gray mineral is probably a Silver sulfide such as Acinthite. Specimen has been etched to better display the complex Gold structure. Technically this is a naturally occurring alloy of 60% Gold and 40% Silver called Electrum.
