CALIFORNIA GOLD NUGGET - 
 GOLD with QUARTZ SPECIMEN  
 
Photos are enlarged representations of offered item.   Ruler, if shown, is 1/4" wide (actual size). A U.S. dime (10 cent piece) measures 17.5 mm in diameter.
Featured item comes from the western U.S. goldfields. This is California gold, as natural as can be. No dealer, unless he's a miner who found the gold he's selling, knows with 100% certainty where that nugget came from. If the dealer's source is dependable, that's another story. This appears very much like other gold I've acquired from my source and trust this nugget is from the Mother Lode. Weighing .64 gram, it's firmly packed with gold but contains a few tiny pieces of quartz embedded within. Check out the character i.e. rough, lacy, and shows little weathering. A very cool and unusual species indeed. That's why I acquired it; for other gold buffs like me to enjoy. For scale, I photographed it next to a U.S. dime. If you're looking for native auriferous (gold-bearing) minerals, this is the real deal.

GO WHERE THE GOLD IS In the gold-prospecting arena, it’s always advisable to go where the gold is, but in looking back at my 18 year mining career, I found it hard to heed my own advice. In hindsight, the chief culprit was fundamental 'lack of access', not my unwillingness to work. In fact, I enjoyed digging for gold immensely. Every day felt like a treasure hunt. Each gold region was different with it's own history and potential. What remains accessible depends on current land status, that is, on who currently owns the mineral rights. Whether unpatented claims, patented claims, or private, deeded land, prospector/miners need to do their homework. Will everyone choose a legal path allowing them to mine a given property while staying within the law? Of course not. There will always be ill-conceived things men do like theivery and claim-jumping which never change. I believe that in the long haul, you'll be far better off following the higher ethical path. Overall, you'll sleep better and respect yourself more than you might have otherwise.
