🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Metallic material?

[LauraLou56]

Good morning all! Went to my favorite rock collecting location off the South shore of Lake Ontario on Wednesday. The rock beach is still fairly frozen over however was able to find some awesome colors as usual. One rock in particular had an interesting copper/gold reflective and flaky material as shown in the second picture on the paper towel. Not sure what composite the metallic material is? The lighting in my home is terrible so I did have to use a "warm" filter to show correct copper reflection color. Always love finding the green rocks in the first picture. ❤️

This is what the beach here looked like a few weeks ago. Went for a sunset hike and the frozen hands were totally worth it! Always the most beautiful sunsets and sunrises. I consider this my outdoor sanctuary.

Looks and sounds like muscovite but tough to say for certain from the picture. Looks like a fun place to collect some rocks though!
