I love the different colors of gold that "Black Hills Gold" is known for. The pinks and rose colors are as beautiful as they are unique. Plus the gold comes from a special part of Sioux country of South Dakota. Back in the 1870's when gold was discovered there and prospectors cared not for the treaties already signed, this caused the great Sioux & Comanche war that ended up costing General Armstrong Custer his scalp along with over 200 of his fellow troopers. As far as taking sides, I cast my lot with the Indians. They have been way more mistreated than any people on the earth at any time in history. And that covers a lot of ground.
