The Humane Society Yukon is excited to announce the launch of the Gold Nugget Raffle, offering participants a rare chance to win genuine Yukon gold nuggets while supporting the care and protection of animals across the territory.
Each gold nugget is a one-of-a-kind natural treasure more valuable than its weight in gold due to its rarity, beauty, and historical significance.
- First Prize: 2.071 oz – Valued at $12,342
- Second Prize: 1.038 oz – Valued at $6,186
- Third Prize: 0.564 oz – Valued at $3,361
Each of these exceptional pieces showcases the rare qualities that make natural gold nuggets so valuable:
- Rarity: Less than 2% of all gold ever found is in nugget form. Rarer than a 5-carat diamond!
- Aesthetics: Each nugget’s shape, shine, and natural brilliance make it truly one-of-a-kind.
- Origin: Nuggets from the Yukon, one of the world’s legendary gold regions, hold special collector value.
