Spinel-twinned and octahedral Gold xls

Item Description

A GOLDEN 3-piece deal of sharply crystallized gold thumbnails from two different countries. The elegant aborescent larger piece with the bright yellow luster is from the famous Eagles Nest Mine of California. One side of this fine two-sided specimen is strikingly dominated by the sharp, lightly hoppered octahedron attached to the sharp spinel-twins. The other sculptural pair of sharp, lustrous, arborescent, spinel-twinned, rich yellow gold crystals are from Venezuelan finds, at Icabaru, Bolivar, around 2007-2008. These were sold as palladian gold, but analysis to date is inconclusive. See http://www.mindat.org/mesg-55-118936.html. Irregardless, these are superb and uncommon small golds with fabulous form! An outstanding 3-piece deal of beautiful sharp crystallized golds with different form and color from two countries.
