A very RICH and showy CABINET specimen of an elongate ribbon-like vein of 3-dimensional, platy gold crystals resting on crystallized milky quartz on massive milky quartz on this EXCELLENT specimen from historic Rosia Montana, Romania. The gold crystals are a rich, mellow yellow color that is unique to Rosia Montana. Outstanding material for a mine that was worked by the Romans. This is undoubtedly old material probably from the 1800s though no way to prove it. To Elling through Harvard and Phil Scalisis collections, I am told verbally. Ex. Goerge Elling Collection.
