Posted this on rocks and gems and should have posted here .
Is it possible to find free silver inclusions in soft binder layers of sandstone ? Got a sample that has metallic shiny silver colored spots in it .

Thanks all , for your responses . Sadly ,the sample is sprinkled with feldspar inclusions . I have a lot of talents . Geology is not one of them .
