[QUOTE="Goldfreak, post: 605430, member: 10082"] Perhaps some one here who is familiar with looking at crushed samples could help me. I Crushed a few rocks up after exploring an area a very old local man once told me his grandfather found a large gold nugget in. I came across two pits in the scrub about 3 meters deep and took about 3kg of stone samples from around the throw outs. Crushed it and panned it off. It doesn't look like gold but has a glow from all sides and it is also impossible to crush with my finger nails. A different sort of pyrites ? Silver coloured gold ? Regular pyrites I have never seen or felt before ? I have no idea...
