Looking for Gold—Which of These Three Rocks Would You Sample first when looking for gold?

White quartz, a rusty rock, or a darker rock with shiny chalcopyrite—which would catch your eye when looking for gold? I take a closer look at these three samples and explain what gets our attention as prospectors, what those clues can tell us, and why sampling matters. Looks alone won’t tell us whether there’s gold—testing is what gives us answers.

UPDATE:
This green fluorite has calcite covering the top, and I’d love to uncover more of the crystals underneath! Have you cleaned a piece like this without damaging the fluorite? Tell me what worked for you in the comments. 👇💚

A little update on this fluorite! 💚 I promised I’d show you what was underneath the calcite once I cleaned it, but there’s been a change of plans. Someone messaged me saying, “Don’t do it—I want to buy it just as it is!” And they did! 😄 So there won’t be a cleaning reveal for this piece—it’s found a new home with its calcite still intact. Thanks to everyone who shared their advice and suggestions! 🪨💚

Sounds about right for me and Larry! 😂🪨 Who else can’t go anywhere without bringing home a rock?

went into the workshop to clean up and found rocks I didn’t even remember having! 😂 Take a close look at this one—what does it look like to you? Let me know in the comments! 👇🪨

This unusual crystal was found embedded in pegmatite in a cliff at Gull Pond, Newfoundland! That deep blue-purple colour in the photo really stands out—but its identity is still a mystery. 💎
Just to clarify 😊 A friend showed me this photo of a crystal found at Gull Pond, Newfoundland. It wasn’t my find—I shared it because it’s interesting and we’d love to know what it is!

What do you think it could be, and why? Let us know in the comments!

Just to clarify 😊
