posting this for a heads up

some people might glance at a nugget like this and think its just iron pyrites due to its cubic crystaline appearance

When WE find a nugget like this , it would be worth _alot more_ than raw gold value due to the rarity of the natural crystaline form

Cheers for the post HeadsUp!

Always loved the stunning crystalline form that those extremely rare nuggets can take. Gotta love nature sometimes! It's another reason to be super careful when swinging the pick into the ground to recover a target. The last thing you'd want to see would be a dirty big pick mark in a beautiful specimen like this, not to mention the cost decrease of doing so.

I live for the day when something like this turns up under the coil :D

Cheers,
Shauno.
