Absolutely! I work with precious metals and I have seen class rings come in everything from stainless steel to gold (yellow and white...even mixed).

Can you dip yellow gold rings into white gold?
I assume you are asking this for one of two reasons. First, because you have a yellow gold ring that you would like to make into a white gold ring. The answer to that is, no, you really can't do that. Liquid gold is molten, meaning that it is heated to a high enough temperature that it melts. Dipping a ring into molten gold would make it melt, too. Maybe not completely melt down into a puddle, but you would certainly lose any detail in the ring's design. The second reason you might be asking is because you have a "white gold" ring that has a golden yellow core, like yellow gold that has been dipped into white gold. This, unfortunately, is merely a brass ring (the yellow part) that has been plated with a white metal, perhaps white gold, but more likely some kind of whitish silvery base metal.
Can gold be recycled instead of mined?
Gold IS recycled- it is too expensive NOT to recycle. But please remember- recycling does NOT create new material of any kind. If you want MORE of a thing, recycling does not provide that. Example- you are graduating from school, and want a gold class ring. Perhaps your grandfather's class ring could be recycled, to make your ring. But where will your brother and sister get THEIR rings? You need additional gold- and that comes from mining.

What does it mean when you dream someone propose to you with a white gold ring?

Does wearing A platinum RING with white gold RING cause problems?
The platinum ring can wear away at the white gold ring because platinum is a stronger metal than gold. Because white gold is plated with rhodium to look white, a platinum ring will wear away the plating of a white gold ring faster than usual, revealing a yellowish tint and requiring the white gold ring to be re-plated sooner and more frequently. Another thing to note is that though platinum is hypoallergenic, white gold often has nickel alloy in it, which can cause allergic reactions. Updated: I think even white gold against white gold can cause a problem. They wear away each other's rhodium even faster than usual. I would go with platinum for both -- it's more durable and it won't wear away because it's a stronger metal and doesn't scratch. (Any "scratches" aren't really scratches - they are more markings - and can be polished away.)

White Gold Vs Platinum Rings?
Recently, there has been a boom in desire to purchase white gold and platinum rings over more traditional metals such as gold and silver. You will find that, at a glance, the only difference between white gold and platinum is the price, but there are many things to consider when purchasing a ring. Here are a few facts about these two precious metals that you may want to consider before buying them; White Gold – White gold is a varied combination of gold and other metals such as Copper, Silver Palladium and Rhodium. The mixture of these metals depends on the carat of the ring. A white gold ring can be of any carat, but is more commonly 9ct, 14ct or 18ct. The Rhodium used within a white gold ring is to give it a whiter surface appearance, as the base color of white gold is naturally grey in appearance. To keep up the shiny, white appearance of white gold, it is best to have the ring re-plated with Rhodium every 12-18 months. Your local jeweler will normally be able to do this for you, or alternatively point you in the right direction of somewhere that can. This does not normally cost too much money to have done. Platinum – Platinum is a much purer metal. It is normally used with 5 percent or less additional metals when making jewelry. Platinum is also a slightly heavier metal. Your average platinum ring will normally weigh more than that of an 18ct gold ring. Platinum is also a naturally whiter metal, this means it has a more natural white appearance without the use of Rhodium. In addition the price of platinum, as a metal, is roughly double that of a white gold ring, so if you have a certain amount you would like to spend then you may be better going for a white gold ring. In conclusion, platinum and white gold are very different metals. They are fairly similar in appearance but white gold is made up of more metals, is lighter and significantly cheaper, whereas platinum is denser, more expensive and purer than white gold. In the end, it all comes down to your own personal taste in rings, but it is fair to say that whilst they can look similar at face value, they are two very different metals.
