A remarkably elegant cluster of two huge spinel-twinned golds, one atop the other in balance, perched as if dancing on a bit of quartz matrix. The video speaks for itself, this is easily one of the more remarkable of the few matrix specimens we have seen from these finds in 2019-2020 from Morocco! Specimen comes with custom lucite base. 31.8 g.
