What is the mineral of gold?

Gold itself doesn't like to form chemical compounds. That's why there isn't any "gold sulfide" or "gold carbonate" or any other mineral that we mine. Make no mistake, we do mine tons of rock and process it to get out the gold. But that's because the gold is distributed through that rock as really tiny bits. Though gold does form a few compounds, we don't really see it in nature as a mineral. Hope that makes sense, and that it helps.


Is 12 kt british gold consider to be gold filled or pure gold An friend of my Brother's is trying to sell a piece of jewelry which is 100 years old has mine cut diamonds in it and it 12 kt gold?

PURE gold is almost never used in jewelry- too soft. Pure gold is 24 Karat. Jewelry is typically 10-16K. Gold filled is an outer jacket of gold, with an inner filling of base metal (non gold). It might be marked at 16K GF, or GFE. Free advice- meet the seller at a jeweler or pawn shop of YOUR choosing, and ask THEM what it is worth. Impossible for us to appraise something at long distance.
