Collecting malachite, pyrite and breccia at an old copper mine and then cutting a few to see what they look like inside. Outstanding spot!

I just rewatched the slicing on the breccia am I seeing iron mineral staining. If so I would powder up a slice so that 80% goes through a 30 mesh screen and pan it for free gold. I was camping with the family and found a breccia rock with a similar look. Broken a chunk off ground it up panned it out. It had some really nice gold in it and now the rest of the rock sits in the front yard garden and sprinkled all around the plants is gold bearing mineral specimens.

Dear friend. very good. I have this type of oxidized copper in the mine and it has very good gold in the iron and copper rock test. Especially green copper oxide. At the same time, pyrites with copper also contain gold. To extract gold, use the above demti cleaning. I extracted two grams of gold from malachites with silica in one kilogram. Good luck.
