How much gold can be dissolved in aqua regia?

Could some one tell me what volume of gold will be held in a saturated solution of aqua regia per gal.

The amount of gold per gallon of aqua regia would be about 32± troy ounces, 35± avdp. ounces or roughly 1± kilogram depending on the temperature of the solution.
