A Couple Of Paperweights That Live On My Desk

[phoenix]

I haven`t been putting up any finds lately because I`ve been in a bit of a drought but I like posting pictures of gold so here is a couple of quartz specis I found about 200 yards and 4 years apart out at Moliagul.   The one on the right total weight 980 grams with about ½ gram of gold and the other 250 grams with about 1 gram gold.   Dave

Phoenix... I really like the looks of mineralized quartz, it has a singular beauty all its own. The gold is sauce for the goose. Attractive finds both, congratulations on two very unique bookends!!! Thankyou for sharing this photo with us.

Nice Dave.  Have you done a specific gravity test on them? May be more gold than you are saying. But you probably have, hey  Thanks for showing.

Good luck out there

As KIWI JW said you may be surprised, I got 16+ ounces out of this specimen the  specific gravity was rough but  indicated within an ounce or two of what I got.

Hi Dave

Hope all is well.

I like your species and that bigger one makes me laugh every time I see.itooks great but funny only that tiny bit of gold there.

Hope you find some full of it.

 

Take care hope to see you soon.
