[QUOTE="BigWave, post: 268614, member: 6786"] Colin, you can also test out your measuring accuracy, by practising on pure materials, such as a lead sinker, pure quartz etc and compare with the published SG for that material. Also, measure a few pure gold nuggets from the same area (to determine average SG and hence purity) to use in future gold content calcs. I've found 22.8 karat is pretty good for the GT. [/QUOTE]
