Meljerm12 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 It's like gold crystallization in between quartz possibly?? Just wondering what I have, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisski Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) I see nothing that looks like gold in those pics. I see some mustard color staining in the quartz which is quite common in AZ. If you’re up for some exercise, get a mortar and pestle and start crushing, and then pan the sand. If there’s gold in there, it’ll show up. Edited December 31, 2020 by chrisski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_day Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 The crystals I see look like calcite to me, though they could be quartz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrex Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Quartz vein possibly sandwiched by calcite veins, some staining. Easier to determine for sure if in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
