Stones / stuffers doesn't see much of the human eye, some people .... But when you look closer, for example with a usb microscope ... It's magic! Minerals! Found a nice stuff today .. I believe that it contains copper, zinc, and perhaps gold and silver .. Or something

Hope you like the clip. And if anyone recognizes any mineral, tell me what it could be ...



And here is pictures of the stuffer..

in the clip the first mineral looks like peacock ore or chalcopyrite  .......not certain about the zinc ...nothing leaped out ....don't think the gold was gold either ....but  to check you need to rotate the sample in reflected light ...if it remains as bright yellow regardless of the angle ...then its gold ...but if the reflections drop off as its rotated then its more likely one of the pyrites ...the last sample looks  to be chalco pyrite again  ..all those pinks and blues ....tend to be fairly charactoistic
