Morlock Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 The first picture is mica schist. Not sure of the second picture due to coloration. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisski Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I agree with above. For a test, take a needle to it, and if it fractures, it’s mica, if its malleable, points to a metal. Another test is to whack a small piece off with a hammer, crush it to sand, and pan it, Gold will end up at the bottom. I’ve crushed many a rock, and have gotten only a speck or two of gold, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
