Description

Some gold leaves frozen in massive white quartz, accompanied by minor galena and sphalerite. Clearly visible with thenaked eye.
A typical piece of a gold quartz vein, one side with vein wall consisting of a dark grey schist.

I assume a transcription error in the locality: There is no Unica Mine in Llalagua, but Uncía is a nearby town. The area is - apart from that - famous for tin mining.
