Rings in White & Yellow Gold
The gold used to cast military rings, initially come from mines in places like Peru, and Africa. There are other noted places around the world. It is painstaking work carried out by miners who descend into tunnels 16,000 feet below the earth’s surface. They excavate to bring up this treasured and revered metal for use in the manufacture of jewelry and other objects of art.
The Incas were the first to mine for Gold. They were soon followed by the Spanish who lusted after silver and gold also. The price of gold has soared in the years 2009 and 2010 as the world has plunged into the worst global recession since 1920,s. Military Rings are available in white and yellow gold. Rose gold is also available but is certainly not as popular as the other two mentioned. It is nice to have options as some people are allergic to one or the other and also depending on your skin tone white may be more suitable.
The Perfect Retirement Ring
For all its lustre and allure, only 160,000 tons of gold has been mined. To put this in perspective that would be about enough to fill two Olympic pools. The world’s deposits are being depleted and we have to move to very remote areas to find more, places like the Congo and Indonesia.
Gold mining produces more waste than any other mining, well just think back about what we know about prospecting in the olden days out west when prospectors would sieve through a lot of dirt before they would get a single ounce of gold.
