Zlatá Šachta, Jílové u Držkova, Jablonec nad Nisou
A new locality (discovered in 2002) for fine native gold. The occurrence was prospected in the years 2002-2003. Very rare native gold occurs in cavities of a quartz reef. The locality was discovered by Ing. Marek Vlach during geological prospecting of the surroundings of Jablonec. The occurrence of native silver and platinum together with gold is unusual.
NOTE: The locality is very doubtful. It was never published. The author of photos does not reply to questions about this material. (Comment by P. Škácha.)
