Perhaps the liquid mineral soup mix passed through that rock???????

Interesting. Do you see exposed veins like that in that area? Was it in the tailings? I wonder if that was the ore OR did it just happen to also contain gold.
These veins are mostly short then fault off the gold is in a variety of ores. My son finds pickers with the detector then brings me samples from that prospect. There are little holes prospects all over this county and large gold mines
 

The sponge is 2.9 grams plus the pickers I forgot to weigh so around 3 grams maybe more. Good day for us add to the melt. The little pickers made a lot of noise in the vial lol, but every little bit adds up

Exactly right. Haile Gold mine in South Carolina makes millions each year processing rocks and extracting the micro gold. Haile is one of Oceania Gold's biggest producers. It's all liquid mineral soup that permeated into the rocks.
