About Solar Masses

A solar mass (M☉) is the mass of our Sun - approximately 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg - and is the standard unit for measuring stellar and galactic masses in astronomy. The Sun contains 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System. Stellar evolution models describe stars of 0.08 M☉ (the minimum for hydrogen fusion) to over 200 M☉ (the most massive known stars). Supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies range from millions to billions of solar masses: the black hole at the centre of the Milky Way (Sagittarius A*) is approximately 4.3 million M☉.

About Troy Ounces

The troy ounce (ozt or oz t) is the global standard for weighing and pricing precious metals - gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. Equal to 31.1034768 grams (about 10% heavier than the avoirdupois ounce), it originates from the medieval fair at Troyes, France, where a standardised weight system facilitated international trade. All gold spot prices quoted on financial markets (LBMA, COMEX, MCX) are priced per troy ounce. A standard 'Good Delivery' gold bar approved by the London Bullion Market Association weighs approximately 400 troy ounces (12.4 kg).
