A 26 gram rounded waterworn 'nugget' of Native Bismuth originally labelled as from Rio Quilake, Santa Cruz, Amazonas Region, Bolivia. This locality does not exist, but was a made-up name that was doing the rounds several decades ago. Instead, this is a classic nugget from Vilaque River, Los Andes Province, La Paz, Bolivia. Ex Martin and Michael Gunther Collection.
