There's gold in them thar hills!




We put the rocks carefully into the acid...

And look!!! Sparklies!

I was well impressed... Apparently it's something called pyrite.

They sometimes call it "Fool's Gold" because it looks a bit like nuggets of gold.

I might bring some with me to my next residence and pretend it's the real thing, so Mum's the word, right? ;-)
