Thanga Suddha (Gold Purification)

Thanga Suddha, or gold purification, is a traditional process to refine impure gold and remove impurities like alloys, dirt, or other metals. The process involves melting gold at high temperatures, often with specific chemicals or fluxes that help separate impurities. Once melted, impurities either float to the surface as slag or form a separate layer, which can be removed. The result is pure, high-quality gold that retains its lustrous appearance and value. This method ensures the gold meets desired purity standards, commonly 22K or 24K, suitable for jewelry or investment.
