Description: Gold Locality: Bendigo, Victoria, Australia (Locality at mindat.org) Size: miniature, 5.2 x 3.6 x 1.6 cm Gold This thick mass of gold is still attached to its host quartz matrix which in most cases gets eroded away to leave the free nugget so common from the Aussie gold regions. Matrix specimens, with GOOD display quality to the gold, are VERY rare! Its total weight is 2.22 ounces / 69 grams. I have not done a SG test but a respectable part of the weight is surely gold 5.2 x 3.6 x 1.6 cm
