Description

Very fine silver wire on matrix. Not anaylzed, but I think the dark gray material is acanthite (with a few tiny, not pictured gold particles) and the lavender colored should be fluorite.

The gold indication might be important for most collectors, but I can't give a guarantee for this.There are microscopic golden grains in the matrix I'm pretty sure of, and I found it interesting enough to mention this. But it's just too small and, like I said before, I can't guarantee. Someone with a microscope might confirm this.
