3lb 4oz MASSIVE HIGH GRADE, HIGHLY MINERALIZED CALIFORNIA GOLD ORE SPECIMEN FROM THE MOTHERLODE
FREE SHIPPING ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES
This is a huge piece of Highly Mineralize, High Grade QUARTZ that is both rare and highly desirable as it is the epitome of what CALIFORNIA GOLD ORE is and the exact reason why so many flocked to this area during the gold rush. Fine gold can be seen in various areas on all nearly all its surfaces. This is a really excellent piece that can be put on display or mines for the treasure it holds.
WHERE DID IT COME FROM: I located this ore near Jamestown, CA. AKA “The Motherlode” or the “queen of the southern mines” and home of the Harvard Mine which produced the largest crystalline gold nugget ever found at a whopping 44 pounds. In addition to the nugget, the mine often produced 12 or more ounces of Gold per every 1 ton of material processed, which are staggering numbers. Another name for the area that I find to be the most fitting is “GOLD COUNTRY” because it is without a doubt GOLD COUNTRY!
