Looks kinda schisty to me. See the mica looking flakes coming off on her fingers. If she expects to sell any she should have it assayed. Looks like a bust to me.

I posted on her video's that it was Mica (ive seen those same rocks all over in the smokies). She got all mad at me, deleted my post, and posted on one of my videos that I was being Rude, and to watch out for payback. I left her post on my site and responded that mistakes are one thing, but to sell it as gold and silver is fraud.

I watched her mica video. Lol. I also contacted her local law enforcement. Hopefully she can be stopped before some eager newbie prospector gets robbed by this lady. Hard enough to keep our rights as prospectors and miners we surely do not need people defrauding others with fake gold nuggets. I'm keeping a real close eye on this one.

from her posts on TN since then, I do believe she actually thought she had gold and silver. However, that being the case, she should have made sure she removed all listings and annotated her videos to clarify that while it looks gold and glittery its a case of mistaken identity. While its a common mistake for people the first time they think they have found GOLD (OK I did this one myself, a spec of gold Mica on quartz in my old gold mine the fist time I started poking around it), in this case I think she got just a little too exited and jumped the gun and went strait for the money.

Not, it looks more like Phlogopite golden color mica stone, it should not cleave and defiantly should not flake off on her fingers, she should of checked before trying to sell it as gold, bad lady.:laughing7:
