That is, the gold content is more than 99.9%, which is commonly known as thousand gold
basic introduction:
gold with a gold content of no less than 999 is called thousand gold, which is the highest value in the naming of jewelry fineness. The mark is thousand gold, 999 gold, gold999 or g999. The marks of gold jewelry include manufacturer code, material and purity, such as: X gold 990, xau990, X full gold, etc. Where, the letter X is the manufacturer code. When precious metals of different materials or purity are used to make jewelry, the material and purity shall be expressed separately. When the jewelry cannot be printed due to reasons such as too fine or too small, it shall be attached with a mark containing the imprint content.
It's purity. Because gold is soft, it can't be 100%, so we need to add some other metals. Which means more than 99.9%.
