Gold nuggets, mined from Native gold, can be smelted directly into gold or combined with an ore of silver to create electrum. It is found as veins in soil and in both igneous intrusive and igneous extrusive layers.
Despite the high value of gold, creating electrum with it will result in a net profit if the silver ore used is galena or tetrahedrite. Using silver nuggets or horn silver for the process, however, results in neither a gain nor a loss of overall value.
Smelting
Gold nuggets are used to create two types of metal bars at a smelter:
- Gold bars
- Electrum bars - with silver nuggets, horn silver, galena, or tetrahedrite
