AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Discovery zone
23°33’ North
08°06’ West

These nuggets come from the desert region of Tiris Zemmour in northern Mauritania, more than a hundred kilometers from an area named Guelb Ndour.
Gold mining in this country was reserved for a large industrial company.
But since 2016 individual mining has been allowed using metal detectors.

I offer them as I found them; I have only cleaned them with soapy water.

The gold from this region is quite pure; in general its purity is on the order of 950 to 980 per mil, which corresponds to 22.80 to 23.50 carats

Although gold mining has become one of Mauritania’s main resources, the nuggets are quite rare because almost all the gold is melted into ingots that are then sent to Dubai

All photos are taken in natural daylight.
I photographed these nuggets as honestly and precisely as possible using daylight.
Please note that differences in screen settings and ambient lighting can lead to variations in color, saturation, and perceived tones.

The nuggets you will receive are of course the ones in the photos.

I offer fast, secure, and discreet shipping in a non-bendable C5 envelope (162mm x 229mm) by La Poste registered mail of France.
