ANDES NATIVE GOLD MINERALOGICAL COIN (PERU HISTORICAL DEPOSITS OF) MAYAN GOLD (EXTREMELY RARE).
[ CERTIFICATION ]
Exceptional and extremely rare piece of native gold from the high Andean peaks, from ancient Aztec and pre-Columbian deposits, the gold mines exploited by the Aztecs, Tarascans and Mayas.
These deposits, which date back and have been exploited for about 4000 years, remain the epics of the great myth of the golden cities of the time and of the Mesoamerican period.
It is from this gold, that the Aztecs and the Mayas, will develop their (Votive art) and return to the gods the offerings necessary for the protection and the perenniality of civilization, these richnesses accumulate throughout the history of the Mayan Empire will long be the property and fame of these civilizations.
Without precise origin, because today still extremely protected the auriferous deposits, of these very moved back areas are still the object of research and discoveries which are rather extraordinary, the gold is in veins of quartz with black schist, this which in the world is with New Zealand is one of the rare places where one finds this kind of mineralogical and very aesthetic architecture.
GEOLOGY
Andes of Peru. The southeastern gold province provides more than half of the gold produced in Peru.
Gold is mined from placer deposits and some primary deposits. Primary mineralization occurs either in high-grade pre-Ordovician (Precambrian?) metamorphic rocks or, more often, in lower Paleozoic shales. in the Rinconada area, numerous auriferous quartz veins parallel to the stratification (i (mantos a) are traditionally exploited.
Has a buildup of sulfo-arsenic. composed of a massive layer of arsenopyrite and pyrhotite is also observed.
Both mineralizations are interpreted as the result of percolation of submarine hydrothermal discharges through sedimentary stockpiling during compaction Placers occur in Neogene to Quaternary deposits from the high peaks of the Cordillera Oriental in the southwest to 'to the Amazon plain to the northeast. respects, on the one hand its base which is composed of a quartz of the horto-gneiss type, whose color indicates a saturation in auriferous ores of Arsenopyrite, on the other hand, a superb crystallography extremely rare, in term of crystallization. a museum piece
