Wat OT but just blew me away this morning…
I picked uo some scrap gold that had been through the Malibu fires of a few years ago. That fire combined with the intense wind actually melted this nice ladies jewelry into a rough puddle. Only a white good ring and a 245 kt coin did not melt, just got stuck in the mess with the diamonds etc. The yellow gold melts at 1700 F, white gold or pure gold about 1900F. So that house fire got to or about 1700 degrees F. Incredible.
