Really appreciate how this was very much straight to the point. Thanks!

Crystal clear. Thank you!

Info on why "24" Karat was chosen to mean 100% gold would've been nice.

Thank you

Thank you for explaining this, I wanted to find out after watching videos of hypercars with Gold in their engines

Awesome!

Is it parts per volume or weight?

Good video

When they melt a bunch of different kt scrap gold what happens to the other metal? It’s usually silver no?

Silver is not a base metal. It’s used in alloys of gold but is also a noble metal.

also isn't silver measured in Karat as well? the most used silver jewellery in the world has usually 925 Karat silver (or sometimes called sterling silver)

Any idea why "24" as a measure of total purity?

@imWillJ

theory: maybe because the number 24 is how many hours there are in a total day, therefore 24 stands for total purity.

one karat is 1/24 gold, so 24k is 24/24 gold

@lierallyjustafish Right, but why a 24kt system? Why not 20, with 1 karat equaling 1/20 gold? You would expect pure gold to be something like 10kt, or maybe 50kt or 100kt-I am wondering why they decided on such a random number.

Personal guess: 24 has 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, and 24 as factors. That means it pretty useful for expressing multiple ratios for purity.

22k gold is available in India today

So when they quote you a price of a 21K necklace, and tell you it's 65 grams, are they telling you the weight based on pure gold or the mixed alloy metal weight? They should just standardize it and only tell you based on pure gold that is present so we can calculate the gold value vs making charge and negotiate accordingly.

Anybody know What’s a 14Kb stamp on gold

I wear 18k and over, nothing less.. and Ive owned 22k for soo long now, that the quote “22k and 24k” is too soft for daily wear.. my 2mm and 3mm 22k chains have lasted forever and they look like brand new.. so I never listen to jewellers.. make sure youre getting SOLID & NOT HOLLOW!!

I hav a ques, why purest form is rated as 24k, why not 100 or 10?

@MrBlue-dm5li

It is measured in parts of 1000 as well as Karats.

Why of all numbers, 24 is used to represent purest form of gold?

cool

why is the pure gold is 24K why the number 24

Ohhh I see if 916 it's meant 22k

25k

In India anything less than 22k is a joke.

Potassium (K)

But y 24 is the main number and not 100 for example,,,?
