Crystalline Gold in Quartz Eagle's Nest Mine (Mystery Wind Mine) Sage Hill, Michigan Bluff District (Michigan Bluff deposit) Placer Co., California, USA Simply beautiful is actually a bit of an understatement when it comes to describing this truly outstanding specimen, from the renowned Eagle's Nest Mine in California. The shape and form are superlative, and a vibrant luster exhibited by the flowering example is impossible to resist. The vivid, yellow Gold contrasts idyllically with inclusions of white Quartz, and the tremendously stunning specimen presents perfectly in a custom, labeled acrylic base. The thinner representation is equally appealing on both massive surfaces. Overall Measurements: 2.47 x 1.99 x 0.41 inches (6.28 x 5.05 x 1.05 cm), weighs 30 grams [Scale: 1 inch, with mark at 1 cm]
