AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare native gold, var. Electrum Romanian.
It is a floating crystallized flame.
Coming from the famous Rosia Montana deposits. It consists of fine, small crystals that form an aggregate like a sponge. A typical cluster for these veins. These veins that offered samples of this type of gold were the richest. Wide from a few centimeters to several tens of centimeters.
Mines closed in 2006.
Piece from an old collection.
The sample has been washed only with water and soap, to preserve its original aesthetic at the time of extraction. This is how the Romans found it 2,000 years ago.
