Pamper your piercings with solid (not plated) 9ct Gold body jewellery<\/a>.\u00a0 Our jewelled 9ct gold nose studs<\/a> give your nose piercing<\/a> a delicate sparkle.\"9ct<\/a><\/p>\n

Ever wondered why 9ct Gold is called 9 carat?\u00a0 It\u2019s because 9ct denotes the amount of pure gold in the jewellery (37.5%).\u00a0 Pure gold has 24 carats in it but it\u2019s just too soft a metal to use for many things including body jewellery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To alleviate this other base metals need to be added to make it stronger and the percentage of these base metals, in relation to the amount of pure 24ct gold, denote the different carats.<\/p>\n

Therefore\u00a09ct gold has 9 parts of gold out of a possible 24 parts (pure gold), so\u00a09ct gold has 37.5% of pure gold in it.\u00a0 With 12ct gold being 50% pure gold, 14ct gold having 58% pure gold, 18ct gold with 75% pure gold and 24ct gold being 100% pure gold.<\/p>\n

Gold is completely recyclable and has been used as currency since ancient times.\u00a0 There is also gold in your mobile phone!\u00a0 Don\u2019t get too excited though, it\u2019s suggested that you would only get 1g of gold in total from 35-41 handsets<\/a>, but it may cost as much to extract it as it\u2019s worth! So potentially your smartphone may have up to \u00a31 worth of gold in it, not really worth the hassle!<\/p>\n
