It is possible to melt down 1 troy oz of gold flakes into gold bullion without them vaporizing, as long as the flakes are pure gold. The flakes will melt into a homogeneous liquid form when the temperature reaches the gold's melting point of 1,064 degrees Celsius (1,947 degrees Fahrenheit). It is important to use proper equipment and techniques to ensure the gold does not oxidize or vaporize during the melting process.

How do you melt down gold flakes?
There are more than one ways, and that's because there are more than one reason. Do you have a thimble full or a teaspoon full?

Even with that much, if you intend to sell it, don't melt it, some places pay more for it as the can charge more for it by placing some in water in little bottles. In any case you should do a Google on, "What metal will gold not stick to". Try several varieties of search words until you get a positive answer and then use that. I'm guessing aluminum, but it's only a guess. Good Luck.
