This 93.26% pure Gold nugget rises in a tapering, flame-like form with brilliant golden luster. The surface shows natural rounded textures, giving depth and dimension as light reflects off each curve. At the base, sharp white Quartz with darker host rock contrasts strongly against the metallic Gold, grounding the piece and adding character. Its vertical, pointed shape gives the specimen a striking, almost comet-like presence.
Gold (Au) is a periodic element that was one of the first metals humans ever worked with. It was created before the earth existed in cosmic events and is one of the least corrosive metals. Gold represents eternity, purity, and prosperity.
Sonora, Mexico, near Caborca and Sonoyta—the same region where the world-famous Boot of Cortez was found (the largest gold nugget in the western hemisphere).
