Al Romaizan Introduces Interesting Facts about Gold

As many gold exhibitions and shows are going on in UAE this month, we would like to talk more about this precious metal that is contributing the most to the jewellery industry. Gold comes in different colours and goes along with various gemstones, pearls, etc as gold rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. In this article, we will introduce a few exciting facts about this rare, pure and precious metal.
The most exciting fact is that gold came to earth from space. Geologists believe that gold arrived on earth billions of years ago as part of the remaining dust that resulted from a supernova. Gold remained in the earth’s core till another space incident occurred. Several meteors hit the earth, forcing minerals and gases from the core to the surface. Thanks to this, humans managed to find gold and start mining, else this precious gold would remain hidden and unknown. Can you imagine our lives without the glitter of a gold set?
We use “AU” to refer to gold as a chemical element in nature (gold chemical symbol). So, what does it mean? Who first used it? The origin of this word is derived from “Aurum”, a Latin word that means “Shining dawn”. Also, Roman’s dawn goddess is Aurora, and it is believed that gold is named AU after the Roman goddess. What about gold? This word is of Germanic language origin. Gulþ and Gel both mean “yellow/green”. Since ancient times, gold has been considered precious and valued for its shining colour, so when you wear a glittering gold ring, remember that you are wearing the most appreciated materials on earth!
Now, what makes gold the best material for jewellery making? The answer is obvious and simple. The gold’s characteristics are unique features that qualify it as the most suitable material for gold jewellery. It is referred to as a noble metal for its outstanding features. For example, gold is a very malleable material; in fact, the most malleable material we have. Therefore, shaping it is very easy. It can be hammered easily into thin parts. In fact, gold can be hammered to reach a transparency condition, and in this condition, its colour may be more like a green colour rather than yellow. Aside from this, gold resists degrading by air, moisture, and acidic conditions. Gold does not rust, and it is odourless and tasteless in its pure nature.
All the above features make gold the perfect match to create everlasting jewellery.
