The 'k' in 18k means carat. Pure gold has a caratage of 24k. 18k gold contains 75% of gold and 25% of copper, or other base metals. Copper is however the most commonly used base metal. The main reason for mixing gold with other metals is to make gold harder. Pure gold is too soft to use in sustainable jewellery.
