GOLD FROM "MIDDLE EARTH"
Deep in the Southern Alps of New Zealand, gold has been forming for millions of years. Uplifted by the alpine fault and through the release of searing thermal water, the minerals containing the gold come to the surface and are continually released through eroding glacial action and river floods to be deposited across the terraces of New Zealand’s West Coast valleys.
Washed through the river system for thousands of years, our gold is amongst the purest in the world and is regularly deposited onto the Middle Earth Historic Mine Site. Assay tested at 95-98% pure, this gold is 23 carats. Commonly known as Alluvial Flood Gold, it ranges from fine grains to flakes.
