Native Gold with Coloradoite & Sylvanite

Bessie G Mine, La Plata District, La Plata Co., Colorado

5.23cm x 4.56cm x 2.6cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A terrific example of native gold with coloradoite and sylvanite from Colorado!!! This specimen consists of a quartz matrix that hosts numerous significant inclusions of native gold with coloradoite and sylvanite!!! The specimen has been cut and polished to further display the richness of the specimen!!! The native gold has a lively yellow hue which sharply contrasts with the silvery tones of the coloradoite and sylvanite!!! Upon close inspection, one can see the difference in these two tellurides, especially in the polished areas!!! The sylvanite has a more brilliant mirror-like silvery luster while the coloradoite is distinctivey darker in hue, almost resembling slightly oxidized antique silver!!! When viewed with oblique lighting the three metallic species are sharply defined!!! There are significant showings of gold and tellurides on every side of the specimen!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY DECEMBER 2nd!!!
