== Most gems are weighed in carats or points, a point equalling 1/100th of a carat. The exception being pearls which are weighted in momme, though usually size (like diameter in millimeters) is the criteria that is measured. In precious metals, most quotes for pricing bulk metal will be based on an ounce, but you will see people use pennyweights (dwt) and grams for fractional or smaller amounts with grams being the more common, I'd say. A carat is equal to 200 milligrams.
