Total weight of the lot: 0.20 g

The photo shows an example of the nuggets that will be shipped. The weight will be perfectly in line with the listing; the number of nuggets will depend on their size.

Gold nuggets from Western Australia, particularly from the historic gold region of Kalgoorlie, are among the most prized by collectors and prospectors worldwide. This area, located in the Yilgarn Craton, is one of the richest and oldest gold districts on Earth.

The nuggets consist of native high-purity gold, sometimes with small natural traces of silver or copper. They formed about 2.5 billion years ago during hydrothermal mineralization processes inside quartz veins. Over time, weathering of the rocks released the gold, allowing the formation of natural alluvial nuggets with unique shapes.

Each nugget represents a unique natural specimen, valued not only for its gold content but also for the geological and collector value tied to the great gold deposits of Western Australia.

Total Weight: 0.30 g
