TC60AB5: Gold with Quartz
Mossy and dendritic growths on a Quartz matrix. The sample was found at the beginning of the twenties of the last century in a rural area, at this time, on the São Paulo periphery, an area that was afterwards absorbed and built up with the quick growth of the city. It is obviously a rarity, very difficult to obtain today.
