Gold in Quartz Holy Terror Mine, Keystone Gold...
Gold in Quartz Holy Terror Mine, Keystone Gold District, Pennington Co., South Dakota, USA "A specimen of gold in massive white quartz. X Robert Bartch collection. Bob collected the specimen on June 21, 1972. http://www.mindat.org/article.php/2158/Robert+Bartsch+++RIP++1939+to+2014. The scale under the specimen is an inch with a rule at one cm." - Rock H. Currier This is yet another Bob Bartsch specimen from another obscure locality. What was phenomenal about Bob was that he had the time, due to his job and the commitment, to ferret out old localities, along the smarts to know what he was doing and not ending up "flat rocked" while doing it. Overall Measurements: 5.7 x 3.1 x 2.2 inches (14.5 x 8.0 x 5.5 cm) Offered at no reserve Provenance: Collected by Bob Bartsch on June 21st, 1972, Ex. Robert Bartsch Collection [RHC #9255, acquired Mar 2015] [Scale: 1 inch, with mark at 1 cm]
