Gold is aurum because that is the Latin for gold. There is no Latin word for tungsten because the Romans did not know it existed.

However, the word aurum is where Gold got its chemical symbol - Au. Tungsten is known in German as wolfram and that is where it got its chemical symbol of W.

So, if gold is aurum, then tungsten might bewolfram
