Driftwood has lots of brown.
Thing is... if bulk tonnage was presifted - removing impurities - prior...
And if assaying by MGX (  most recent ) did not search for nickel...
Then,. one won't know of nickel.

Nickel in a brown carbonate form - is indeed an eye opener.
Decomposition color change.
One could easily pass it off as simple - brown dolomite.
But is it ?


Cheers.....
