Mercury is a low reactive metal and is more reactive than silver, gold and platinum.
Low reactivity metals can easily found in earth.
The reactivity of a metal influences its ability to displace another metal in a displacement reaction. A more reactive metal will displace a less reactive metal from its compound. For example, a more reactive metal like zinc can displace copper from copper sulfate because zinc is more reactive than copper.
Sodium metal is usually kept under paraffin because of its high reactivity.
By knowing the reactivity series of elements, we can tell which elements will displace each other. So to extract a metal from an ore, you need to use an element higher up in the reactivity series, so that the metal will be replaced by the other element, and you are left with a more pure form of the metal.
Gold is native in the reactivity series, meaning it is found in its elemental form in nature without needing to be extracted from a compound.
the reactivity increases as you go down the group
The cheap metal r ing from a vendor is more than gold in reactivity
Decrease reactivity

Platinum or Gold.
Mercury as in, the Element, it's the only metal that's a liquid at room temperature.
The less reactive a metal is, the more likely it is to be found native in the Earth, or the easier it is to extract. By and large, the reactive metals, which are hard to extract, were discovered later.
any metal's that below Copper in the reactivity series.
Lithium
