A lot of gold in Montana is found in its original natural formation within quartz veins. Iron and other minerals, along with the free gold and gold sulfides gives it quite a nice color. If you find quartz that is red like this, you may be onto something good!  Free milling gold can be crushed with a high quality rock crusher to liberate the gold. #gold #montana #prospecting
