Know Your Rocks Or Miss The Golden Dagger

[Gerry in Idaho]

Know your Rocks.
This highly desired collectors piece was found by one of my customers with a Fisher Gold Bug-2.
If you did not know what to look for you'd probably toss the rock aside thinking "just another iron stone hot rock".  When you see a good variety of colors and minerals, its time to slow down.
Here is a 1 of a kind tree shape gold specimen or Dagger.
Thanks to my customers for sharing your photos of Success with me.

Colorful?

Looks like it has some copper carbonate - azurite.

My best guess would be limonite (rusty red color) on quartz.
