DROOL DROOL DROOL

[El Dorado]

I got to hold and photograph some of the finest looking gold yet. It's from near Quincy CA. Five pieces of gold that will probably be sold for close to $175,000. The fifth piece will be in another post. These are close ups of just amazing crystalline gold. Yes, they were given the HF treatment. Smallest piece is over 6 oz..... Please excuuuuuse the photo quality, I had to do them on a porch, hand held


The whole kit and kaboodle

Thanks, Steve

What is the HF treatment?

[El Dorado]

Hydrofluoric Acid... It totally dissolves the quartz leaving the gold only. The incredible crystals showing are free grown in a vug in the quartz vein. Very rare gold.......

Closest I have ever got to finding something like that was pyrite crystal in a sulfide seam while I was dredging.
