Gold

A rare element on Earth, gold is found in ores, veins underground or in sandy riverbeds. It is sometimes combined with other metals or minerals.

Origin

gold-nugget

The metal in a native state is also found in the form of free flakes, grains or larger nuggets that have been eroded from rocks and end up in alluvial deposits or surfaces. Once refined, 24kt Pure Gold is available in – Coins, Biscuits and Bars Forms. Furthermore, it is blended with other metals to craft jewellery.

Karat

gold-karat

The term “Karat”, is used for measuring gold purity. Since 24 Kt Gold is too soft to craft Jewellery, it is alloyed with a combination of metals like Silver, Copper, Nickel and Zinc to give it strength and durability along with hues of shades and luster.

More the alloy percentage blend with pure gold, more the jewel piece becomes stronger, scratch resistant and reasonable.

Characteristics
