[QUOTE="Una, post: 172763, member: 5743"] Hello Everyone, I am new to the forum, I am an artist up on Cape York and have lived up this way for 30 odd years.. Sorry if I have stuck this post in the wrong thread... I wasn't sure where to put it.. I have been looking at some stones that have been collected from the Wenlock and am wondering if anyone can give me any advise on what I am looking at.. I would say that 70% of the stones have these beautiful teeny little bright yellow 'gold' seams running over them.. How would I be able to work out if its gold, or if its pyrite? Is there any way to tell? I was going to paint the stones but it would seem such a waste of a beautiful stone if it had a teeny shimmer of gold naturally on it instead hahahaaaa Thank you for any help in advance [img]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a289/unasaurus/7d30c356-def5-4123-a9d7-b76eebdcb58c.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
