Specimen of gold-bornite-quartz from a hydrothermal vein

Geoscience wouldn't be what it is without the field stories. The American Institute of Professional Geologists devotes a section in The Professional Geologist for their column "Tales from the Field" where members share their experiences. In this issue, Jim Burnell, (CPG-11609) recounts doing baseline exploration work in the Dahlonega Gold District in North Georgia. Find the piece about halfway down the page. The picture included is from Wikimedia Commons and is a specimen of gold-bornite-quartz from a hydrothermal vein.
