Jeweler's unit of measure (5)

I believe the answer is:

carat

(Other definitions for carat that I've seen before include "Unit of gem measurement" , "Unit of weight of gemstones" , "Diamond weight unit" , "Measure of weight of diamonds" , "Gemstone weight unit" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
