How Do You Convert Grams Of Gold To Troy Ounces?
Do an ounce of gold and an ounce of rock weigh the same amount? Not necessarily. An ounce of gold or other precious stones is probably measured in troy ounces, and an ounce of anything else (including rocks) is probably measured in avoirdupois ounces. An avoirdupois ounce weighs a bit over 28 grams, but a troy ounce weighs over 31 grams. Therefore, it is important to convert both types of ounces to grams to ascertain just how much you are buying or selling. Ensure that the measurement should be converted to troy ounces, not to avoirdupois ounces. Use the calculator to divide the gram measurement by 31.1034768. The result is the amount of troy ounces in the substance. Do not confuse a troy ounce with a troy pound. Although a troy ounce is larger than an avoirdupois ounce, a troy pound is smaller than an avoirdupois pound.
