This fine specimen measures 3 x 2 x 1.5 and weighs 7.4 troy oz with .65oz gold. A very attractive specimen showing unusally well crystallized gold from this locality where display quality gold is rare. The gold grades from crystalline masses near the base, to elegant mirror lustrous dendrites measuring up to an inch near the top. These dendrites greatly resemble an eagle's nest specimen, but are much more rare from this locality. The matrix is snow-white quartz with minor associations of arsenopyrite. The matrix has been professionally stabilized to ensure proper durability. HKA#63950
