Aurostibite : AuSb2, Gold : Au, Jamesonite : Pb4FeSb6S14, Quartz : SiO2

Bes-Tyube Au deposit, Kökshetaü Oblysy (Kokshatau [Kokchetav] Oblast'), Kazakhstan

SEM image of polished section. The most bright in BSE rounded grains of native gold AV908 rimed by light-grey crust of aurostibite with theoretical composition AuSb2 . Note the scratch, which show to us, that gold is malleable while aurostibite is much more harder and fragile. Associating minerals are very minor prismatic grey in BSE jamesonite ...
