[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 639103, member: 487"] Mate, that one is possibly gold but the photo isn't clear enough to tell. Pyrite is often cubic but you can also have arsenopyrite or chalchopyrite which looks more like the stuff you have there. Best idea would be to crush a sample and pan it off to see if there is gold in the pan. Also you could try scratching the bits you think are gold with a knife and it it crumbles it is not gold. If you get a garlic type of odour come off it when you scratch it then it's ansenopyrite. [/QUOTE]
