TJ26AH0: A novelty at Tucson 2018. The sample is from a new place, not so far from the better known Serra do Caldeirão where the gold samples have different morphological characteristics. In this case this is a floater group of crystals with dodecahedron and octahedron faces with curvatures and very well defined skeletal growths. Due to its general shape and aspect it resembles sculptures of anthropomorphic figures of old civilizations.
The specimen has been reviewed, photographed and published as a new discovery in the magazine ‘Mineralogical Record’ on page 462 in the volume 49, number 3, May-June 2018, in the Russian magazine ‘Mineral Observer’ on page 76 in the volume 23, number 2, and for the magazine ‘Paragénesis’, number 01/2018, page 126
