It is mica schist. Thats the host rock from the old mine data in the area this was found gneiss is another host rock at another old mine not too far from it as well.
 

Looks like mica to me.Crush it,turn it into sand,and pan it and see whats inside ,like this 005.JPG006.JPG012.JPG

Or if you don't want to pan it run the crushed material thru a sluice 010.JPG
 

Still looks like mica to me. Take one of the pieces and try to crush it with the tip of a knife. If it crumbles, it is not gold. Good Luck!
 

Do all of the above suggestions, then send it in for the assay report-post up.
Then it will confirm/deny what most see.
