Hi All!
For lunch the other day I met a rockhounding/Master lapidarist!!!
He gave me this excellent piece of lapis Lazuli
My question is: well… do you see those gold specks?
I’m assume its pyrite
Don't know tho...
As gold been known to form in lazuli?
Anyone know ?
& enjoy

Re: Lapis Lazuli/Gold ?

the person who gave me this chunk of Lazuli
assured me that its pyrite
guess everyone else realized that, also
cause any gold on this board gets an
immediate response
