What is carat gold?
The carat (abbreviation ct or Kt) is a measure of the purity of gold alloys. In the United States and Canada, the spelling karat is used, while the spelling carat is used to refer to the measure of mass for gemstones.Therefore 24-carat gold is fine (99.9 per cent Au w/w), 18-carat gold is 75 per cent gold, 12-carat gold is 50 per cent gold, and so forth.Historically, in England the carat was divisible into four grains, and the grain was divisible into four quarts.For example, a gold alloy of fineness (that is, 99.2 per cent purity) could have been described as being 23-carat, 3-grain, 1-quart gold.The carat system is increasingly being complemented or superseded by the millesimal fineness system in which the purity of precious metals is denoted by parts per thousand of pure metal in the alloy.The most common carats used for gold in bullion, jewellery making and by goldsmiths are:24 carat (millesimal fineness 999)22 carat (millesimal fineness 916)20 carat (millesimal fineness 833)18 carat (millesimal fineness 750)15 carat (millesimal fineness 625)14 carat (millesimal fineness 585)10 carat (millesimal fineness 417)9 carat (millesimal fineness 375)
Is there 48 karat gold?
For the benefit of those who do not know what a karat is, the karat (a.k.a. carat) is a measure of the purity of gold alloys. There is no such thing as 48 carat gold simply because carat is a percentage, with 24 being pretty much 100 % purity (you cannot have 200% pure gold, it makes no sense). The most common carats used for gold in bullion, jewelery making and by goldsmiths are:* 24 carat (millesimal fineness 999) * 22 carat (millesimal fineness 916) * 20 carat (millesimal fineness 833) * 18 carat (millesimal fineness 750) * 15 carat (millesimal fineness 625) * 14 carat (millesimal fineness 585) * 10 carat (millesimal fineness 417) * 9 carat (millesimal fineness 375) * 8 carat (millesimal fineness 333) * 1 carat (millesimal fineness 042) Millesimal fineness is a system of denoting the purity of platinum, gold and silver alloys by parts per thousand of pure metal by mass in the alloy. For example, an alloy containing 75% gold is denoted as "750".
