Depends on several factors, including size of the flake, overall density and the density of the medium they are in. Typical cheaper gold flakes will float in water.
Fools gold [pyrite] does not come in flakes like slate but is randomly shaped and cannot come cleanly off in flakes.
The flakes of gold are more dense than water, therefore, it will sink to the bottom and then the water can be carefully poured out
Yes,I just came home from holiday yesterday and I bought some in the airport. It is 24 carat gold flakes
Gold can float on water if there's a layer of oil on the surface. To break the surface tension, a drop of Dawn soap will do the trick.
It's certainly possible to melt gold without vaporizing it (in fact, it's kind of hard to vaporize gold; the boiling point is over 3000 K ... more than 5000 degrees Fahrenheit).
Normally if you see golden flakes in silt they are gold. Some rivers and streams carry silt and small gold nuggets or flakes.

That depends on the purity and weight of the flakes.
Goldschlagger contains flakes of gold.

no it does not float
Generally, 'found gold' is acquired by panning for gold flakes in mountain streams.
because there was gold flakes found in the American river

Gold is bought based on weight and caret. Gold flakes wouldn't have much of either, so unless you have a big bag you don't have enough to sell for cash.
No, gold is heavy
