Gold Nugget Australian 0.33 grams Natural Native Hand Prospected High Quality

Most native metallic gold runs from 18K to 22K (750% to 916% purity). In mining experience, doré bars smelted from microscopic ores are usually lower due to residual silver, copper, and other trace metals left behind during processing. In contrast, native gold nuggets and visible placer specimens achieve higher, unadulterated purity.

Sourced through alluvial gold mining—widely regarded as the most environmentally friendly extraction method—this piece comes from remote New South Wales, an area globally famous for its high-purity gold reserves.
