Silver is an important precious metal just like gold, however it ranks second in terms of value and importance after gold. Due to the fact that is very flexible and ductile, it is resistant to pressure and can easily bend. As a result, it is often mixed with other metals to increase its durability and strength. White gold contains varying amounts of gold, which is always yellow as well white metals to lighten its color and add strength and durability.
