Gold Mauritanian nuggets 1.365 grams- 1.37 g

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 kilometres from a area named Guelb Ndour. Gold mining in this country was reserved to a large industrial company. But since 2016 individual exploitation is allowed using metal detectors. I offer them as I found them; I only cleaned them with soapy water. The gold from this region is quite pure, generally its purity is around 950 to 980 thousandths, which corresponds to 22.80 to 23.50 carats. Although gold mining has become one of Mauritania’s main resources, nuggets are fairly rare because almost all the gold is melted into ingots that are then sent to Dubai. All photos were 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 tones perceived. The nuggets you will receive are of course the ones shown in the photos. I offer fast, secure and discreet shipping in a non-bulging C5 envelope (162mm x 229mm) by La Poste (French registered mail).
