ROSARITA

In the early 1940’s Gold Prices spiked.  As a result of the new high prices some prospectors revisited the old gold mines in places such as Colorado, California, and Alaska.  These crusty codgers would build brick kilns over open pits and super-heat that gold-bearing ore that still litters the sites.  The return was small and the practice only lasted about 5 years.  The beautiful red gold slag would run off down the mountains, and solidify into boulders of Brilliant Red and Orange, much like Obsidian is formed in volcanic reaction.  The material is durable and polishes to a beautiful shine.  We feel very blessed to have such a lovely earth element to work with.  Rosarita is the only material available in such a true red color.  Some pieces have swirls of orange and these are even more rare.
