Making Black Hills Gold Jewelry

[mamato56]

@jalobeaulieu1: the gold used in making Landstroms Black Hills Gold jewelry is bought on the open market, just like any gold. Not to be insensitive whatsoever, just accurate.

pure gold is actually 32k

[mamato56]

Thanks for the post... I would like to hear more about 32K gold (?); but since the 15th century, pure gold has been 24 karat

from Merriam Webster: kar·at

: a unit of fineness for gold equal to 1⁄24 part of pure gold in an alloy

Variant(s): or car·at \ˈker-ət, ˈka-rət\

Function: noun

Etymology: Middle English carrat

Date: 15th century

@mamato56 I'm slightly dyslexic and one time while talking about gold I accidentally said 42k gold. Hahaha. It was right in my head but my mouth flipped it around. :D

This was very interesting watching the process and the final products looked beautiful.
