It is extremely important to pay attention to the purity of gold when purchasing it. Consumers should always ensure that the gold they buy has a hallmark. Hallmarking is a government guarantee of gold quality, certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). This process is carried out according to the rules and standards set under the Bureau of Indian Standards Act, giving consumers confidence in buying pure gold.
To understand gold purity, it is important to know the difference between 22 and 24 carats. 24-carat gold is 99.9% pure, but due to its delicacy, it is not considered suitable for making jewelry. On the other hand, 22-carat gold is approximately 91% pure, with 9% other metals such as copper, silver, and zinc added. This mixture of metals makes the gold stronger and more durable, making the jewelry comfortable to wear and long-lasting. This is why most jewelers sell jewelry made of 22-carat gold, offering customers both attractive designs and durability.
