[QUOTE="Rivarat, post: 190026, member: 5745"] I was out a couple of weeks ago and found a small outcrop in the bedrock best described as a greenstone with a white layer over the exposed part. Anyway I cracked off a piece and took it home. Tatong Victoria area[img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/5745/1442391039_photo0207.jpg[/img] Finally got around to giving a slice a bit of a polish today. The colour of the actual stone is a bit darker than the photo probably due to the light on the microscope. This photo is at 10x magnification.[img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/5745/1442392175_still0007.jpg[/img] Looking at the crystal structure in one of the little pit marks on the polished surface 60x magnification I believe there's a speck of gold.
