{"product_id":"native-gold-nugget-3","title":"NATIVE GOLD Nugget","description":"The Lena River Basin is one of the most famous occurrences of crystallized Native Gold in Russia, but the number of fine crystallized specimens in circulation is really small. Most specimens seen in western collections were handled by the famous American collector\/dealer John Barlow (1914-2004) during the 1990s, and he kept many for his private collection which was sold in 1999. This fine specimen found its way into the Siber and Siber Collection. The Lena River Basin extends to 2.49 million sq. km. but the alluvial placer gold deposits are believed to be those near to the mouth of the river where extensive mining took place in the early 20th century. This 8 g individual flattened crystallized Native Gold nugget provides quite a visible display and shows excellent texture detailing the crystallized form of the gold. It is also at the larger end of the crystallized nuggets found at this important site.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46793781280943,"sku":"CC50350","price":6500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/8516\/2671\/files\/CC50350Goldnugget_LenaRiverBasin_Russia108-ECM4144ed.jpg?v=1790074226","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.com\/products\/native-gold-nugget-3","provider":"Crystal Classics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
