Gold can be melted, though to make gold thread it is drawn out or extruded through dies (small holes) to create wires. . Gold is a very ductile metal which means is can be beaten very thin or drawn out very finely. At times extrusion and drawing are used together, an extrusion to create an over sized wire and then thinning the wire down to the final size by drawing it through dies.
