Gold in bullion form is commonly ' four nines', 99.99% pure gold. Gold coins are often of lower gold content - as low as 21 ct in some cases. This helps the coin resist wear.
Gold does not readily react with other elements, so it is often found in 'pure' form, also the rocks surrounding the gold prevent it from oxidation.
Gold is the most beautiful and desirable of all the chemical elements. Gold is one of the few chemical elements to be found in its natural state. When found it is a metallic yellow in colour. Gold is found as nuggets, dust or little chips. It is used today in many things such as jewlerry, crowns, etc.
copper, silver, nickel, iron...
Gold, silver, and copper are considered native elements because they occur in nature in their pure form. They are not chemically combined with any other elements and can be found in Earth's crust as metallic mineral deposits. This is in contrast to other elements, which are often found in nature in the form of compounds or minerals.
Gold does not easily bond with other elements found in the earth. However, sodium bonds quite easily with other common elements such as nitrogen and chlorine, so to find pure sodium is unlikely.

no, covalent compounds can only include non-metal elements and gold (Au) is a metal element
Most likely yes. All elements found on Earth can probably be found on Mars. However, trying to retrieve the gold from Mars would cost more than the gold is worth.
No isotope of silver ordinarily found in nature is radioactive. Like all elements, silver has synthetic radioactive isotopes.Silver is not radio active, none of silver's isotopes have radio activity.ur welcome!

Gold. Gold is an element, so it cannot be created from other elements.
Ag(silver), Au(gold), Pt(platinum), Cu(copper) are found in free state
