This is too cool! I ran another 5 gallons of concentrates through my fluid bed concentrator this yesterday. While back-panning the final concentrates, I noticed 3 tiny beads of gold mercury amalgam. They were probably just under 1 mm in diameter. I grabbed my macro lens and got some closeup shots. The amalgam must be saturated with flour gold, as you can see bits sticking out. I added these to my on-gong collection of gold mercury amalgam in this tiny vile. This is my third time getting amalgam from this location. These are indeed tiny treasures!
