Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (milligram) The milligram is a very common metric unit of mass equal to 0.001 gram or 1000 micrograms (µg or mcg). One milligram equals approximately 0.015432 grain or 35.274 x 10E-6 ounce. Unit Definition (ounce [troy]) The ounce [troy] is a second traditional unit of mass or weight. The troy ounce, traditionally used in pharmacy and jewelry, is 1/12 troy pound, 480 grains, or about 31.1035 grams. Thus the troy ounce equals 192/175 = 1.09714 avoirdupois ounces. This unit is the traditional measure for gold and other precious metals; in particular, the prices of gold and silver quoted in financial markets are the prices per troy ounce. The troy ounce is divided into 20 pennyweight or into 8 troy drams.
