What is Gold?
Gold is a chemical element which is bright, slightly reddish yellow, dense, soft, malleable, and ductile metal in its purest form. The symbol for gold is Au (from Latin: aurum) and the atomic number is 79.
As of 2015, a total of 186,700 tonnes of gold exists above ground. The world consumption of new gold produced is about 50% in jewellery, 40% in investments, and 10% in industry. Gold is used in corrosion-resistant electrical connectors in all types of computerized devices due to its high malleability, ductility, resistance to corrosion and most other chemical reactions, and conductivity of electricity. It is also used in infrared shielding, coloured-glass production, gold leafing, and tooth restoration.
As of 2016, the world’s largest gold producer by far was China with 463.7 tonnes.
Types of Gold we deal on:
1) Colored Gold: Gold can be transformed into different colours depending on the metals it is mixed with. It is transformed generally for the purpose of jewellery. Examples of gold colours include:
• White Gold: white golds are usually mixed with a white metal such as nickel, manganese or palladium. A Standard White gold is usually 14K of gold (58.5% purity) while the rest comprises of 21% copper, 7.84% zinc, and 12.73% nickel. White gold can often be rhodium plated to give it a more shiny and white appearance.
• Rose, Pink, Red Gold: This type of Gold is mixed with copper. The more copper in the alloy, the darker the tone of red that will surface. A standard rose gold alloy comprises 18K (75% gold) mixed with 25% copper while a 50/50 mix of gold (12K) with copper results in what we would call red gold.
