Brian,

    To be perfectly accurate, it's not possible to make a general
    statement as to the purity of Alaska nuggets. Alaska is a pretty big
    place and gold is found all over the state. In some places copper
    will predominate as the impurity, but there are some places where
    there is silver or a combination of both. It is highly unlikely that
    the gold you friend has is 24k (.999) although it may be close.  
    Some places have purer gold than others. Also, very fine gold will
    tend to be more pure than that which is more coarse. The gold you
    have in Australia tends to be more pure than most of the gold found
    here.
