There is no 18 Karat gold in an ounce of 24 Karat gold because 24 Karat gold is pure. 18 Karat gold is alloyed with another metal to make it wear longer. There are approx. 31.1 grams of 24 karat gold in a troy oz. A troy oz. is smaller than a regular oz. It would take more than 31.1 grams of 18 Karat gold to equal the pure gold content of 1 oz. of 24 Karat gold.
