Ther's gold in them thar hills! ~ August 25th

Phoenix Gold Mine ~ Colorado

The sparklie stuff is real gold.... about as close to pure gold as you can get in rock form. The current mine is pulling about 10 ounces of gold for every ton of rock!! That's considered a rich vein! It's a lot of work for that sparklie stuff.

This would be so interesting. You captured the sparkles in the rock perfectly.
