Gold, a chemical element that is probably known to everyone. Gold is a transition metal and is in the 1st subgroup in the periodic table, also called the copper group. Besides copper, the group also contains the precious metals silver and gold. In chemistry these metals are also called coinage metals. Gold has been used for thousands of years for ritual objects and jewellery and since the 6th century BC in the form of gold coins as a means of payment. Gold is also used as a food additive.

In earlier times, gold was simply found in nature because of its strikingly shiny yellow colour. It can be processed mechanically very well and does not corrode. Because of the durability of its shine, its rarity,

its apparent imperishability and its striking heaviness, it was used in many cultures, especially for prominent ritual objects and jewellery. Gold was one of the first metals to be processed by humans. In the entire history of the world, an estimated 170,000 tons of gold have been mined.
