Gold FactsSymbol=AuMelting point= 1948 degrees FahrenheitSpecific gravity is 19.3Hardness=2.5 on Mohs scale

How Gold Is MeasuredGold, Silver, and other precious metals are universally bought and sold inTroy ounces. A Troy ounce is heavier than a standard ounce as there are only12 troy ounces in a pound. Troy ounces are usually subdivided into eitherPennyweights, abbreviated (dwt), or Grams. Professional gold dealers prefergrams but pennyweights are preferred by gold prospectors.

In the pennyweight system each Troy Ounce is divided into 20 units calledPennyweights and each pennyweight is further divided into 24 grains.Therefore one troy ounce is equal to 480 grains. This is the same system usedin measuring gunpowder and probably accounts for the popularity of thepennyweight system. Most of the early prospectors had no idea what a gramwas but they all had a gun powder scale that was calibrated in grains.

The metric system is easy to use because all you need to remember is that onetroy ounce is 31.1 grams. Since this is based on the metric system grams aresimply divided into 1/10th or 1/100th units.

When you are buying or selling gold you must be careful when talking tosomeone about a quantity of gold. Make sure that the ounces you are talkingabout are the same ounces you are thinking about. Here are a few conversionsto help you keep this straight.

One Troy lb (pound)=12 troy ouncesOne troy oz=20 pennyweight (dwt)One pennyweight = 24 grainsOne troy oz=480 grainsOne troy oz=31.1 grams

Carat and Karat

Carat abbreviated “ct.” and spelled with a “c” is ameasure of weight used for gemstones. One caratis equal to 1/5 of a gram (200 milligrams). Stonesare measured to the nearest hundredth of a carat. Ahundreth of a carat is also called a point. Thus a .10carat stone can be called either 10 points, or 1/10 ofa carat. Small stones like .05, and .10ct are mostoften referred to by point designations.

Karat with a “K” is a measure of the purity of agold alloy. Pure gold is 24 karat and 12 karat goldis 50% gold.

24K 100% gold18k 75% gold14K 59% gold12k 50% gold10k 42% gold

Tips on digital scalesDigital scales are widely available today that areinexpensive and very accurate. These scales canbe easily adjusted to weigh in several formatsincluding grams and pennyweights. If you areusing one of these scales you need to be sure thatthe scale is set to use the format you prefer. Areasof potential confusion include the way somescales abbreviate grams and grains, and thesimilarity of troy and regular ounces. Be sure youcheck to see that you and your scale are on thesame page.

If you are using the gram format it is easy to do aquick check of the format selection and thecalibration of the scale by weighing a $1.00 billor a nickel. The $1.00 bill should weigh almostexactly one gram and the nickel should weighalmost exactly five grams.

Hardness of MineralsIn terms of reliability, hardness is one of the better physical properties forminerals. Specimens of the same mineral may vary slightly from one toanother, but generally they are quite consistent. Inconsistencies occur whenthe specimen is impure, poorly crystallized, or actually an aggregate and notan individual crystal.

Hardness is one measure of the strength of the structure of the mineralrelative to the strength of its chemical bonds. Minerals with small atoms,packed tightly together with strong covalent bonds throughout tend to be thehardest minerals. The softest minerals have metallic bonds or even weakervan der Waals bonds as important components of their structure. Hardness isgenerally consistent because the chemistry of minerals is generally consistent.

Hardness can be tested through scratching. A scratch on a mineral is actuallya groove produced by microfractures on the surface of the mineral. A mineralcan only be scratched by a harder substance. A hard mineral can scratch asofter mineral, but a soft mineral can not scratch a harder mineral (no matterhow hard you try). Therefore, a relative scale can be established to accountfor the differences in hardness simply by seeing which mineral scratchesanother. That is exactly what French mineralogist Friedrich Mohs proposedalmost one hundred and seventy years ago. The Mohs Hardness Scale startingwith Talc at 1 and ending with Diamond at 10, is universally used around theworld as a way of distinguishing minerals. Simply put; the higher the number, theharder the mineral.

GOLD TESTING SUPPLIES

Gold testing acids in handy 1/2 ounce plasticsqueeze bottles. No mixing or pouring. Usein conjunction with a gold test stone.#-6752 10 karat test $4.95#-6753 14 karat test $4.95#-6754 18 karat test $4.95

SILVER TESTING SOLUTIONSame as gold testing solutions exceptdesigned to test for silver.#-6756 $4.95

HOW DO THESE QUALITY GOLD TESTING ACIDS AND ACCESSORIES WORK? The basic gold testing procedure is to make a small scratch test of the sample metal you are testing on the test stone. Drop a few drops of the test acid on the sampleand observe it. If the quality of the gold is equal to or greater than the karat quality rated on the test acid the acid will not effect the sample. If the tested metal is notgold or is of a lower purity than the quality rated on the test acid the acid will destroy the sample. An optional method is to make two scratches on the stone, onewith the sample metal being tested and another with a test needle of known purity gold. When you apply the acid you observe both scratches to see how theycompare.

GOLD PAN FEATURES IN GENERALThere are a wide variety of gold pans available in our catalog and they allhave advantages and disadvantages that you should consider in choosing agold pan.PAN SIZEThe size of the gold pan is important and there are several dimensions thatyou should consider. In the above illustration the top diameter of the pan isreferenced as (A). This gives you an idea of the overall size of the pan andthey are available from 6 inches to 16 inches in width. A larger pan has the advantage ofholding more material and therefore allowing more production. A large pan full of material isheavy and can be tiresome. A small pan is handy as a finishing pan to complete the finalseparation of gold from black sand concentrates. A smaller pan is also easier to use when youare not panning in a stream or lake where you have lots of water and room. Dimension (B) represents the depth of the pan which is also a good indication of how muchmaterial it will handle without overloading it. Dimension (C) represents the size of a straight drop between the sloped edge of the pan and thebottom. The size of this drop varies and some pans do not have this feature at all. This dropcreates an extra riffle at the bottom of the pan. Some experienced panners use this riffle as thefirst and best chance to capture their gold. Dimension (D) represents the size of the bottom ofthe pan. A large bottom relative to the overall size of the pan is handy when you get to thepoint of separating the gold from the last black sand.TYPE OF PAN MATERIALGold pans can be made out of plastic, steel, or copper. The most common pans are made ofplastic which is light, can be made with deep riffles and do not rust. Steel pans are heavier,usually have small riffles, if any, and are subject to rust. Many old timers prefer the smoothsides of the steel pan. Copper pans are made specially for using with mercury or for presenta-tion pieces.COLOR OF THE PANPlastic pans are available in several colors. The most common color is black which makes goldeasily visible but tends to mask black sand. Blue and green pans are popular and make the goldand black sand easily visible.PRETREATMENT OF NEW GOLD PANSNew plastic pans are coated with a mold release material in the manufacturing process that willcause the pan to work ineffectively at first because the mold release compounds are lubricantsand will cause water to bead up. This will be eliminated after the pan is used for awhile. Theprocess can be speeded up by thoroughly cleaning the pan with a good degreasing detergent.Sometimes steel wool helps. Be careful not to scratch the surface of the pan too much.New steel pans usually are impregnated with oil from the spinning process used tomanufacture them. This oil can easily be removed by heating a new steel pan on yourstove top burner or with a propane torch until it is very hot. The heating will quicklyburn away any oil residue but will create a little smoke. If you want a nice bluedfinish on the pan you can pick it up with a pair of pliers, while it is still hot, and dropit into cold water. Be careful you don’t burn yourself. If you do not want to use theheat process you can follow the same instructions provided above for plastic pans.

KEENE DRYWASHERS & ACCESSORIES

The drywasher that has everything. Recover gold in the desert, dry river beds or any goldbearing area. This amazing drywasher can recover fine gold even in damp ground. The 151recovers gold using three processes at the same time. Electrostatic concentration occurs be-cause the high-velocity air flowing through the unit creates an electrical charge which attractsand holds gold to the riffle tray cloth like a magnet. The same airflow holds the material insuspension allowing the heavier materials to sink into the riffles where it is caught. The adjust-able oscillating vibrator shakes the material at the same time furtherhelping the values to sink. The Keene hot air induction blower helpscreate static electricity and allows you to run material that is damp.The giant hopper and recovery box are made of sturdy Mar-lex plastic, and the hopper has an adjustable flow gate tometer the material evenly. The recovery box has an alu-minum riffle assembly including both high and low rifflesand is easily removable for extra-easy cleanup. Weighs75 pounds and uses a 4" intake hose. Frame is platedtubular steel. #-K-151 (complete with blower and hose)
