∙ 13y agoIt depends on what you're using it for.
If you want to sell it for money, gold is quite rare, and therefore more valuable. Gold is also more malleable than titanium, so it is better for shaping into a sculpture. However, it would not take much heat to melt that sculpture.
Titanium is harder and lighter than gold. In fact, it has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal, and is therefore ideal for making aircraft and other items that require a great deal of strength but not much weight. To be clear however, titanium, though less expensive than gold, is certainly not cheap. It's fairly common, in various naturally-occurring compounds, but the process of extracting it from the ore into a more-or-less pure form, or even a form that can be alloyed with other metals, is quite costly.

∙ 14y agoTitanium is a metal and it is one of the most common metals on earth. Titanium has a very high tensile strength and a fantastic strength to weight ratio. Titanium is suitable for jewelry because it is strong enough to hold stones in place. It is usually mixed with aluminum and vanadium to make it a grade 5 strength metal. Titanium rings and Titanium bracelets forged form grade 5 metal cannot be re-sized however. Tungsten is a transition metal and just like titanium is a very strong element. Tungsten has the highest melting point and tensile strength of any metal and is very resistant to corrosion.

This was in America though

Is titanium better than sterling silver?
That depends on certain criteria. Sterling Silver is more valuable, is a precious metal and titanium is not. Sterling Silver is also shiner than platinum and is actually the whitest metal there is. Sterling Silver is heavier than titanium but is weaker as it rates 4 on mohs scale. titanium rates about 6 on mohs scale for strengh and will last longer than silver but weighs half as much as steel so its the lightest in weight for a wedding ring. Sterling Silver tarnishes when exposed to body acids and oxygen but if worn daily it will not tarnish. Sterling Silver is easily attacked by chemicals such as chlorine in pools which will make it turn partially black which is Silver Sulfate but can be re-polished. Titanium makes more sense if you abuse your rings more violently in the elements so choosing is up to whether you like the color durability or weight of the rings.
Why is silver cheaper than gold?
Gold is more rare to find!
What is worth more money titanium or sterling silver?

How can you tell if the silver is made of titanium?
Not sure if I understand the question. Silver and titanium are two different metals, silver is softer than titanium and melts at a much lower temperature. Also generally titanium is more expensive than silver, so I dont see why anyone would want to "make silver with titanium".
