{"product_id":"native-gold-with-quartz-2","title":"NATIVE GOLD with QUARTZ","description":"Roşia Montană, or Verespatak as it is often known, is without question the most important historic locality for crystallized Native Gold in Europe. Mined since Roman times and then part of the Hungarian Empire, crystallized leaf gold specimens on characteristic white to pale grey siliceous rhyolitic matrix were seen in all of the most important aristocratic mineral collections across Europe during the 18th century and after, and are seen in national (museum) collections dating from that time too. This quite large triangular-shaped finely crystallized Quartz-brecciated rhyolite matrix is quite richly carpeted in tiny crystals of Native Gold that look beautiful under magnification. These are not leaf-gold, but blocky elongated crystals with some small Pyrite crystal intimately associated with them.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46793898262703,"sku":"CC58834","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/8516\/2671\/files\/CC58834.png?v=1781001821","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.com\/products\/native-gold-with-quartz-2","provider":"Crystal Classics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
