It is mica schist. That type of rock CAN contain gold. It is a metamorphic rock. Whether it contains gold or not can probably be settled quickly when we know what state and county it came from. Some whole regions have a lot of this with gold, other regions, with nothing.

I have a small amount of knowledge with minerals and I am going to say the true way is to take it in and have it assayed that is the real test.

Maricopa Joe sent it to me from Arizona. It shines pretty good and it will be a paperweight for me.
That is, if my desk is not too cluttered.
