In mining operations, ore minerals are often separated from valueless minerals by using gravity separation techniques that depend on specific gravity differences. This occurs in natural systems, too. Placer gold deposits form when gold from weathered rock, because of its high specific gravity, concentrates in stream beds. 3.75 Gold nugget …Web

Compared to real gold, pyrite is different in many ways. Fool's gold VS real gold. 1 Pyrite's specific gravity is smaller than gold. Gold ore weighs about 4 times as much as pyrite at the same volume size. 2 Pyrite is harder than real gold. Gold has a Mohs hardness of 3, while pyrite is 6, which is not easy to scratch.Web
