I have to wonder...
You wouldn't believe how many tiny particles of Gold Dust it takes, just to make one of the small clumps of dried gold dust...
I let them dry in an old coffee filter I had handy...
At first, most of the tiny particles when right through the coffee fillter, but after a while, they began to collect, the more times I poured the wet ones through...
The Coffee Filter is still loaded with tiny dried particles of Gold Dust...
The ones that collected in the filter that came off are the ones you see...
Yes, finding untold Billions of tiny particles of Gold Dust, was a total surprise to me...
Knowing how easy it is to break them free, is also a Big Plus...
All I used was White Vinegar, some distilled Water and a Metal Plate, along with a Coffee Filter...
This is how it looked when it was stll wet...
Notice how small the tiny yellow ones are...
Anyway...
The angle of the light sure makes a lot of interested shapes show up...
Could this be what the Old Timers were calling Chocolate Quartz...???
The Rich Gold Samples that came from the Lost Breyfoggle Mine claimed the Gold was in what they were calling Chocolate Quartz...
I have to wonder...
I wonder about a lot of things...
I've been doing it as far back as I can remember...
I'm still wondering about all those Clumps of Gold Dust...
I put what I'm now calling my Chocolate Quartz Rock back into some Distilled Vinegar to see if it has the same reaction as my original Heavy Brown Rock...
It does have a Chocolate look about it...
Below, shows what my Dried Clumps of Gold Dust looks like...
Feel free to comment...
Seems like we are both in the condition where we always wonder and wonder several times actually. I thought I am the only one actually
What have you been wondering about lately...???
