Gold , Mauritanian Nuggets 0.408 gram- 0.41 g - (1)

Discovery Zone 23°33’ North 08°06’ West This nugget comes 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 had been reserved for a large industrial company. But since 2016 individual mining is now authorized using metal detectors. With a team of Mauritanians, we conduct prospecting with this type of equipment (mainly Minelab GPZ7000 and GPX4500) in the Mauritanian desert. I’m presenting it as I discovered it; I have only cleaned it with soapy water. The gold from this region is quite pure; in general its purity is around 950 to 980‰, which corresponds to 22.80 to 23.50 carats. Although gold exploitation has become one of Mauritania’s primary resources, nuggets are fairly rare because almost all of the gold is melted into bars that are then sent to Dubai. All photos are taken in natural daylight. I photographed these nuggets as sincerely and accurately 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 nugget you will receive is, of course, the one shown in the photos. Worldwide shipping I offer fast, secure, discreet shipping in a sturdy C5 envelope (162mm x 229mm) by La Poste French mail with tracking number. I will send you this tracking number via message immediately after dispatch.
