Alchemy is a pseudoscience that claims to transmute base metals like lead into gold. However, there is no scientific evidence to support this claim, and it is not possible to turn lead into gold using any known substance or method.
No. The two metals are seldom found together in nature (mercury is found in the mineral cinnabar). However, some industrial mining processes used the affinity between the metals to remove trace gold from ores. (Mercury is atomic number 80 and Gold is 79, so to turn mercury into gold, you would need to turn a proton into a neutron. This requires a cyclotron.)
Simple stone
It is impossible to turn lead into gold without restructuring it at a molecular level, so no philosopher has ever achieved this feat.
