Gold in Quartz Sonora Mexico A milky gray Quartz...
Gold in Quartz Sonora Mexico A milky gray Quartz matrix created the perfect canvas for the irregular patches of Gold that cover a large portion of the surface of this rocky Gold in Quartz specimen. From Sonora, Mexico, this example is quite sizable and contains some 8.5 troy ounces of Gold, based on Specific Gravity testing. The contrast of the yellow Gold against the milky gray Quartz is rather dramatic, and the overall size of the piece makes it a collector specimen with high decorative appeal. The oceans of Gold revealed on the surface are superb, and the combination of form, appearance and locality result in a singular and superlative Gold example. Overall Measurements: 2.79 x 2.25 x 1.82 inches (7.08 x 5.72 x 4.63 cm), total weight 404 grams (8.50 oz t) [Scale: 1 inch, with mark at 1 cm]
