NATIVE Gold$5,000.00
Wire transfers available, to set up
Fata Baii (Facebánya) at Zlatna, Alba Co., Romania is an older Gold-mining area. It has been reported that richly crystallized Native Gold like this only came from the early, upper mine workings high on the hillside, and that material like this probably dates back more than 120 years. Certainly, it is much, much rarer, to see a specimen from Fata Baii than it is from Roşia Montană. This small cabinet specimen also shows the Native Gold to form delicate aggregates of crystallized dendrites rather than the foil-like sheets of leaf-Gold typical of Roşia Montană. At 2.4 x 1.5 cm, the largest area of crystallized Native Gold is quite prominent. It is from the superb systematic and historic collection assembled by the brothers Martin and Michael Günther (1951-2007 & 1956-2021).
