595:, and use this gold as the basis for American money. This will be the ironic paradox of history: that it took the workers’ government to establish a sound dollar in the United States, based on gold reserves... Eventually, money will be dispensed with altogether. The fully developed socialist society will have no use for it. But in the meantime, the workers’ government will have a sound dollar regulating the national economy, and no inflation.” 1485: 31: 614:“When people will have no further use for money, they will wonder what to do with all this gold, which has cost so much human labor and agony. Lenin had a theory that under socialism gold could be used, maybe, to make doorknobs for public lavatories, and things like that. But no Marxist authority would admit that in the socialist future men will dig in the earth for such a useless metal.” 940:

the halogens to one degree or another. Iodine in KI solution, for example, will etch gold rapidly, and is used for that purpose in IC manufacturing. Pure gold is attacked only slowly by diluted chlorine-containing solutions. Alloys are more rapidly etched, but it is gold as well as alloying metals that is being dissolved.

1184:, I really think it should be kept and expanded. I would like to see much more information on all the gold bars which exist, weights, sizes, countries of use, manufacture, and the uses to which bars may be put, - Central Bank gold, investment gold, trading gold, manufacturing gold, jewellery gold, momento gold etc. 1098:

The Greek myth of King Midas and how he had the "curse" of turning everything he touched to gold, may want to be included. That and perhaps the popular pre-renisance belief that you could turn lead into gold by adding some other element, or the process/beliefu of alchemy. Or if they are too unrelated

939:

No, gold can be attacked by chlorine in various forms, as long as there are free chlorine ions available. This includes household bleach solutions, chlorinated swimming pools and hot tubs, even free chlorine released from domestic water supplies during showering. In general, gold is attacked by all

Yes, take for example Xenon the noble gas. While it is termed as such and is still considered to be a noble gas, it has been made to react with fluorine, forming the solid compound XeF4, that is Xenon tetra fluoride(8th ed General Chemisty, Chang Raymond). Nobility of gas or metal does not require

took extravagent liberties with Black Elk's actual words, and that large parts of what's attributed to Black Elk are made up. I don't have any references for that, so I'm not going to take out the Sioux reference. But I think we should consider taking it out. It could be true, but it sounds a lot

877:

For jewelry, and for historical gold coins that actually circulated, there's a very good reason that pure gold was not used. (It isn't just because kings wanted to debase the currency -- although they did that too.) Pure gold is too soft to be practical for many purposes; a pure gold coin would wear

839:

I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but I am really confused about alloys and the carat system. I don't know if this should be clarified in the article, but maybe someone could tell me. If gold is always mixed with an alloy then is 24 carat gold really pure gold? Is is mixed with an alloy

1467:

Tarnish is, as I understand it, a relatively resistant coating of a salt of the metal. For example, silver reacts with sulfur to give a tarnish of silver sulfide, that doesn't dissolve in water. Gold doesn't have such salts, as far as I know; solutions that attack it also dissolve it. Correct me if

There should be a psychology and neurobiology of gold paragraph. Does science understand how and why the brain decided gold is desirable? Is there a particular section of the human brain which can be removed, yet the guy will live but loose interest in gold and misc. shiny things like diamonds? Are

1317:

The article states that gold is the basis of the International Monetary Fund's monetary standard. I think this is not true. At one point, the Bretton Woods agreement fixed the price of gold in dollars as a monetary policy. Now however, this gold standard has been replaced by Special Drawing Rights

264:

that the price of gold will hit $ 1000 or any other figure you care to name. However, if so, this may simply be a speculative bubble (as the 1980 peak seemed to be) or a response to the value of the dollar. But on the other hand, go compute the historical ratio between the price of gold or silver,

into here, okay, it's a gold product and quite notable as far as that goes. Its existence and manufacture should be mentioned, in one or two sentences. Better here than having a stub article. But before this goes into too much detail, keep in mind there also are tin bars, rubidium ingots, yttrium

131:

Sounds good to me. Whatever the supposed dispute, it should be described in the talk page. This is especially important in an article as long, and with such a variety of information, as this one, but IMO it should be a matter of course anyway. It makes it difficult, but I agree there's no obvious

1135:. I'm also not interested in a whole US-centric section on their money supply. Or in speculations on the politics of Malaysia. It's utterly irrelevant to a general article to include a listing of investment stock exchanges. This article seriously has to be rebalanced, away from the money thing. 235:

Any predictions as to what the price of gold may rise to in the next 1-2 years? I've heard it can go as high as $ 1,000? I was thinking closer to $ 800, but look at this link: . Although not a completely objective source, this is the not the first place I have seen this mentioned. Any thoughts?

1354:

Actually, if you think about it, gold is not one of the noble gases. 1: Gold is a metal not a gas. 2: Noble gases have exactly 8 electrons in their outer orbit, rendering them perfectly inert. Gold, on the other hand, is missing electrons, so that it will interact with other substances such as

395:

in the Stargate Technical forum of Ascifi.com (Ignore that temperature; it's a calcuotypo!), gold's ductibility and malleability are exceeded by at least three other metals, at STP even. If you look around the periodic table, you should see that for yourself without going into my essay.

183:

Hmmmm... I see the new section heading and note I added have both been deleted mere minutes later, and the cultural stuff I had started to put up is now in "history". Interesting approach, and well written. But the material I want to add is about cultural aspects of Gold

1013:

Agreed. It seems too much like a stereotype. It's worth noting that gold was a much bigger deal in Spain's colonization of South America than in any white man's colonization of North America ... and moreover was in widespread use in pre-Columbian South America, too.

537:

Historically, and to present day, gold has been considered a highly valuable material in almost all cultures, and the struggle for possession of gold has even been the direct or indirect cause of wars. But not all political ideologies share this view on gold. The

Other things are equally important that aren't even mentioned. Little about gold leaf when there's a whole historical art craft based on it. Or the drawing of gold wire that is so important in electronics—about 100 tonnes of bond wire each year

I have read than Gold leaf can be used in food, and the article on E-numbers appears to show that it is a registered additive, along with Aluminium and Silver. Is this actual gold metal and if so should a mention go in the article?

The Symbolism section contained some fascinating information, but it also contained a few minor typos and grammatical errors. I have rewritten the section to fix these errors. I have preserved the facts as much as possible.

I don't want to edit this subject since I haven't been involved in its development. There appear to be a number of links from this subject to external sites of a purely commercial nature. Should those be removed?

Surely other uses must have been permitted too - it has significant industrial uses, and was certainly used in computer circuitry during this period. Does anyone have a reference to what exactly was prohibited?

745:, but it would seem to be not actually possible, just a effect due to gold contamination of the mercury. Unless someone can find a better source, it should probably be removed from the article. -- 1266:

Is it really necessary to have all the various local names for gold in the History section? I do believe it to be redundant (via interwiki links) and that it doesn't add anything to the article.

331:

NPOV? You have to be extremely carefull, because many gold investors constantly make statements and doom and gloom websites purporting to show the stable value of gold throughout economic crisis.

1161:, for example). There are many different weights and types of gold bars, so it would be interesting for potential investors in bullion bars. The history of gold bars would also be noteworthy. -- 851:. The answer is basically that it depends what you mean by "pure". When one says that gold is always alloyed, what this means is that it is practically impossible to remove other metals from it 758:

That link is a good find! After reading it it's clear that this method doesn't work. So yes, it should be removed from the article - or better moved into the section on stuff that doesn't work.

Assuming gold could be described as having a gold colour, this is probably a bad choice of words to explain how caesium is easily-identifiable, so I changed it to 'pale golden color'.

and other desirable combinations of physical and chemical properties, gold also emerged in the late 20th century as an essential industrial metal." --From the article, emphasis mine.

328:"However, gold becomes particularly desirable in times of extremely weak confidence and during hyperinflation because gold maintains its value even as fiat money becomes worthless." 362:

I wonder, why is gold considered to be valuable? I know it looks great but is that why? I am not asking because I don't think it should be considered as such, I'm just curioous.

346:

No.. It's saying that frequencies in the red-yellow area of the spectrum are reflected, and higher frequencies are absorbed.. The red/green/blue thing is biology, not physics.

247:

The gold price is usually reported in U.S. dollars. So it responds to fluctuations in the value of the dollar wrt other currencies. When the dollar falls, the price of gold rises.

339:"... caused by the fact that the plasmon frequency of this element lies in the visible range, which causes red and yellow light to be reflected and blue light to be absorbed." 253:

Many of the folks you see touting gold in columns and blogs online are people who own gold and would like to see the price stay up. So they are likely to present a rosier view.

Speculation happens. The price of a commodity responds to demand for that commodity, even if much of this demand is driven purely by speculators who see the price going up.

Agreed. I removed a batch of commercial links with seemingly little or no information content apart from advertizing. Restore legit. ones as you like, but justify each.

440:"It is one of only three metals which have an actual easily-identifiable color; the other two are copper, which is red, and caesium, which has a gold color." 1238:

Wow that's sad. There really isn't much of a difference between a gold and silver metal other than a name and some more publicity. And maybe more sweat :).

240:

Well, of course, folks who have put a lot of money into gold in the past few years would like the price to stay high. Some things to take into account:

1303:

I know in Canada you can buy gold in coin stores, but it is much above market value(because they are coins). Not sure about buying at market prices.

583:

729:

It's one of the reasons why gold is valuable. It is extremely inert, and can pass through the system intact. No nutritive or physiological effect.

225:

Correct. Gold Peaked at $ 850 per ounce in 1980, but the average price in 1980 was $ 620. Please amend the article accordingly, if needed.

470:

Yeah, seeing as gold and copper are described in terms of flat colours rather than likening them to metals, that's probably a better idea.

1289:

There were, in the past, restrictions on private ownership of gold in both the UK and US. These disappeared in the 70's, AFAICT. The

You probably mean the Olympic gold medals. They contain at least 6 grams of gold plating, the base is a 92.5% silver alloy, actually.
