GENUINE
JSP 9k Gold Jewelry Test Acid
9-karat gold contains 9 parts pure gold and 15 parts additional metals such as silver, tin, nickel, zinc, palladium, etc. It's often used in Europe for jewelry, accessories, and other items.
Gold testing via acid solutions are a classic way of testing gold items for their karat values. This method is best used on scrap gold to be smelted due to the destructive nature of the testing, but can be used on gold pieces to be worn if the testing if done in an inconspicuous spot.
PLEASE NOTE: Gold testing acids are made using NITRIC ACID that can harm the skin. Please exercise caution when using this method of testing, including proper protective eye wear and gloves. Nitric Acid can burn the skin and leave stains.
Procedures for Testing Gold:
To test for the karat value of gold you will need the following materials and tools:
Black acid testing stone that is washed thoroughly with water prior to each test
Acids

Testing for 9K:
Scratch or Rub the piece onto the test stone, leaving a visible deposit of gold on a stone. Place a drop of the appropriate acid on the stone where the gold deposits are. If the gold is the same karat or higher, the acid will not affect the gold marks. If the gold piece is of a lower karat, the scratched deposit will dissolve and eventually disappear.
When testing for potential gold plated items such as heavy necklaces and earrings, use a metal file to make a slight gouge in the piece. Place a drop of acid onto the gouge. If the item is gold-plated, the acid will slowly dissolve the metal underneath. If the item is pure gold, no reaction should occur.
