Gold (spinel twin) with Quartz (Ref: MJ87AM4)

Aouint Ighoman, Assa-Zag Province, Guelmim-Oued Noun Region  Morocco
12mm x 3mm x 2mm
minID: MGE-CLP
From a very recent find in the area of Western Sahara in Morocco, with the specific location yet to be determined, this specimen of Gold, very well crystallized and with brilliant luster, displays a sharply defined morphology, with the dominant forms of the octahedron, twinned according to the spinel law, with curious hooked ends and with minor Quartz.
We will see what the future of the locality holds for these high quality absolute novelties.
This material has been carefully analyzed, and we will send a copy of the analysis to the buyer.
