Gold is a precious metal with a long and rich tradition. Egyptian rulers used it as a symbol of power, and the ancient Latins named it “Aurum”, believing it to have the “glow of the rising sun”. No other element evokes such strong, almost mystical feelings in people. Because of its extraordinary properties, gold is the object of fierce human passions, hopes, greed. Women use it as an ornament to the body and clothing. Men as a means of business and exchange. States jealously guard it in their treasuries as a guarantee of economic stability, and as a symbol of glory and power. Religious communities decorate their relics and religious artifacts with it. Gold is considered the metal of nobles, kings and rulers.<\/p>\n
Although gold has been present in the volume of the planet Earth since the formation of the solar system, it is believed that literally all commercially viable deposits of this precious metal were formed much later, as a result of the fall of meteorites and asteroids. One of the largest celestial bodies to hit the earth many millions of years ago created a 300-kilometer-diameter crater in South Africa. Today, the world’s richest gold deposit is located there. It can, therefore, be said that the gold we possess and use is a true gift from heaven.
\nGold has extremely interesting physical properties. The most extensible is the known metal, since a single gram can be rolled into a foil the size of one square meter. Extremely thin gold leaves become transparent and acquire a greenish-blue sheen, as gold strongly reflects yellow and red light. Gold is also an excellent conductor of electricity and heat. The density of the yellow precious metal is extremely high. One cubic meter of gold (that is, a cube with an edge one meter long) weighs 19 thousand kilograms. If you think lead is hard, think again. A cubic meter of lead weighs “only” 11 thousand kilograms, or about 40 percent less.
\nIn the periodic table of elements, gold is found under the ordinal number 79 and marked Au.
\nIts melting point is at a temperature of 1064 degrees Celsius, and its boiling point is at 2856 degrees Celsius. It can be found in nature on its own, in the form of lumps of pure gold, or in combination with tellurium.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”small” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Gold is a precious metal with a long and rich tradition. Egyptian rulers used it as a symbol of power, and the ancient Latins named it “Aurum”, believing it to have the “glow of the rising sun”. No other element evokes such strong, almost mystical feelings in people. Because of its extraordinary properties, gold is the object of fierce human passions, hopes, greed. Women use it as an ornament to the body and clothing. Men as a means of business and exchange. States jealously guard it in their treasuries as a guarantee of economic stability, and as a symbol of glory and power. Religious communities decorate their relics and religious artifacts with it. Gold is considered the metal of nobles, kings and rulers.<\/p>\n
Although gold has been present in the volume of the planet Earth since the formation of the solar system, it is believed that literally all commercially viable deposits of this precious metal were formed much later, as a result of the fall of meteorites and asteroids. One of the largest celestial bodies to hit the earth many millions of years ago created a 300-kilometer-diameter crater in South Africa. Today, the world’s richest gold deposit is located there. It can, therefore, be said that the gold we possess and use is a true gift from heaven.
\nGold has extremely interesting physical properties. The most extensible is the known metal, since a single gram can be rolled into a foil the size of one square meter. Extremely thin gold leaves become transparent and acquire a greenish-blue sheen, as gold strongly reflects yellow and red light. Gold is also an excellent conductor of electricity and heat. The density of the yellow precious metal is extremely high. One cubic meter of gold (that is, a cube with an edge one meter long) weighs 19 thousand kilograms. If you think lead is hard, think again. A cubic meter of lead weighs “only” 11 thousand kilograms, or about 40 percent less.
\nIn the periodic table of elements, gold is found under the ordinal number 79 and marked Au.
\nIts melting point is at a temperature of 1064 degrees Celsius, and its boiling point is at 2856 degrees Celsius. It can be found in nature on its own, in the form of lumps of pure gold, or in combination with tellurium.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”small” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Gold: a precious metal with a long and rich tradition<\/h2>\n
Gold is a precious metal with a long and rich tradition. Egyptian rulers used it as a symbol of power, and the ancient Latins named it “Aurum”, believing it to have the “glow of the rising sun”. No other element evokes such strong, almost mystical feelings in people. Because of its extraordinary properties, gold is the object of fierce human passions, hopes, greed. Women use it as an ornament to the body and clothing. Men as a means of business and exchange. States jealously guard it in their treasuries as a guarantee of economic stability, and as a symbol of glory and power. Religious communities decorate their relics and religious artifacts with it. Gold is considered the metal of nobles, kings and rulers.<\/p>\n
Although gold has been present in the volume of the planet Earth since the formation of the solar system, it is believed that literally all commercially viable deposits of this precious metal were formed much later, as a result of the fall of meteorites and asteroids. One of the largest celestial bodies to hit the earth many millions of years ago created a 300-kilometer-diameter crater in South Africa. Today, the world’s richest gold deposit is located there. It can, therefore, be said that the gold we possess and use is a true gift from heaven.
\nGold has extremely interesting physical properties. The most extensible is the known metal, since a single gram can be rolled into a foil the size of one square meter. Extremely thin gold leaves become transparent and acquire a greenish-blue sheen, as gold strongly reflects yellow and red light. Gold is also an excellent conductor of electricity and heat. The density of the yellow precious metal is extremely high. One cubic meter of gold (that is, a cube with an edge one meter long) weighs 19 thousand kilograms. If you think lead is hard, think again. A cubic meter of lead weighs “only” 11 thousand kilograms, or about 40 percent less.
\nIn the periodic table of elements, gold is found under the ordinal number 79 and marked Au.
\nIts melting point is at a temperature of 1064 degrees Celsius, and its boiling point is at 2856 degrees Celsius. It can be found in nature on its own, in the form of lumps of pure gold, or in combination with tellurium.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”small” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
