It could be some form of pyrite if it's not marcasite. I don't know if the graveyard point plume claims are near any precious metal claims or not. It could be silver - though I find that to be less likely than some form of pyrite.

I cut a few more and we both think its marcasite. These are some of the best graveyard slabs I have cut todate, these babies are going to make awesome cabs.
