AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare native gold var. Electrum Romanian. Coming from the famous Rosia Montana deposits. These are fine, small crystals that form an aggregate like a sponge. A typical cluster of these veins. These veins that offered samples of this type of gold were the richest. Widths from a few centimeters to a few tens of centimeters.
The matrix is the classic Dacite of these zones. Mines closed in 2005.
Piece from an old collection.
The sample weighs 13 grams, the gold estimated present in the sample is about 4.5 grams.
The sample has been washed only with water and soap, to preserve its original aesthetics at the time of extraction. With professional cleaning the gold would become much more lustrous and yellow. But this is how the Romans found it 2000 years ago.
Attention! this is not just any sample, it is a very representative sample of these zones, and ideal for a certain level of excellent collections.
Reserve price obviously. Happy bidding to all.
I will send video upon request, or for more information, you can contact me at this email: minerals.cfm@gmail.com
