Nope. I see a lot if mica and limonite... also slow developing quartz crystals which shows this is not mineralized by hydrothermal heavy minerals. Don't see sulphides or heavy weathered mineralization, but mica and biotite iron depoits. Chances of gold are very slim in these rocks. Only a lab assay would say for sure.

Sulphides are there, if there’s gold it’s likely not visible to the naked eye. Smash and pan.

Not even close. Once you see it, you will know. You wont even have to ask anyone

To hard to tell from pictures one shot looked possible, but you know "crush it, pan it" only way to tell
