To check the purity of gold purchased in Mangalore you can:

• Certification - Ask for a certificate of authenticity, which acts as proof of the gold’s purity

• Conduct a magnet test - Gold is not ferrous and thus, does not get attracted to a magnet. However, this test is only effective with 24K gold which is 99.9% pure. This is because 22K, 18K, and 14K gold are metal alloys and have some portions of metals like nickel and copper mixed in them.
• Machine tests - Gold retail stores have advanced machines that can be used to test the purity of the gold purchased. It will also provide you with additional information about the weight of the gold being tested.
