REASONS WHY GOLD IS SO VALUABLE: #
1. Gold
is not only the most malleable , but the most ductile metal that we have discovered. .
2.
Chemically, gold also happens to be the least reactive , aside from noble
gases. .
3. Gold has been seen as extremely valuable since ancient, unrecorded times .
We have proof of this in the jewelry, coinageand
additional arts and decoratives that
have been found in archaeological digs.
4. Gold tends to withstand, likely because it is resistant to individuals acid
attacks .
5. Gold is used in many industries . It is commonly used in electronics, jewelry,
dentistry, the production of colored glass
and even to detail fine china.
6. Due to it being a naturally occurring metal, it is considered to be fairly
rare . In fact, it is most frequently found during abundant mining of other
metals like copper.
7. Gold is able to easily create alloys with countless other
metals.
8. Aside from gold being a wonderful conductor of electricity and heat, it will
also strongly reflect infrared radiation .
9. Unlike many other metals, gold will not be affected by moisture, air or the
majority of corrosive agents. This is why it is commonly used in jewelry, as a
coating for metals that are more reactive and for coinage.
