Natural Gold Nuggets
N atural Gold Nuggets are a huge part of Alaska’s rich history. Exposed veins of gold break off and wash into rivers and streams. The natural movement of the water tumbles the gold against sand and rocks, forming the Natural Gold Nugget. Less than 1% of the gold found is in the form of nuggets; their value rising significantly due to their increasing scarcity. Alaskan Gold Nuggets, found around the Yukon river are remarkably pure. Each nugget is unique and sold at premium prices based on their rarity, shape, and size. A 1-ounce nuggets is now considered as rare as a 5-carat diamond.
