Because gold is noble, what means that if it forms a compound, which is
very unlikely, that compound spontaneously breaks into free gold
native metals
No, not all metals are found in the Earth's crust. While the Earth's crust contains a wide variety of metals, some metals are very rare and are not commonly found in geological formations. Additionally, some metals are found in concentrations that are too low to be economically viable for extraction.

No, other elemental categories, such as alkali metals and transition metals are also found on the Earth's crust. One such alkali metal that is frequently found on the Earth's crust is potassium (K).
That would be silicon, or SiO2
silicon.
Calcium is a chemical element, symbol Ca with the atomic number 20. It is the lightest of the alkaline earth metals and is the fifth most abundant element in the earths crust. It is not found in its elemental form but in the minerals calcite, dolomite and gypsum, among others.
30 grams of Astatine can be found in the earths crust at any one time.
The Earth's crust contains eight elements. The most common element among the eight is Oxygen (47 percent) and second is Silicon (28 percent).
Metals are usually found in the Earth's crust, in the form of ores.
The principle element found at the Earth's core is iron.
what are two elements that can be found in the soiold earths crust
Yes, many of the most common metals found in the Earth's crust, such as iron, aluminum, and copper, were among the earliest metals to be discovered and utilized by humans due to their prevalence and utility in various applications.
