"What a gorgeous Native Gold !
It's completely crystalline with flattened dendritic crystal growth to
the right and dodecahedrons and trigons crystals to the left.
When the specimen was forming, a small seam probably opened up in the Quartz matrix and allowed for the development of larger, unflattened crystals. on both the front and back side of the specimen. The flattened crystalline growth to the right is pure dendritic, displaying beautiful herringbone patterns throughout.
From the Eagle's Nest Mine, Placer County, California.
Measures 6.1 cm by 6.7 cm in size."
