Re: sard or rusty quartz?

Hello Dale;

Gossans are usually quartz, often with a lot of goethite. So orange/brown/black iron stained quartz is commonly found in the gossan. It is difficult to tell what you have without seeing it. If you could upload a photo it would help.

I am pleased to offer some of my finest mineral specimens. Some of them were released, many years ago, from major museums and significant private collections.
