Why gold and platinum not corrode in air?
(Copying verbatim from my pre-registration answer)
Gold and Silver (and other Noble Metals like Iridium and Palladium) do actually corrode in air, just very very VERY slowly. Bonding with Oxygen is the usual source of chemical corrosion here on Earth, and every metal has its own personal "preference" for bonding with more of itself vs with Oxygen. Iron, for instance, likes Oxygen a lot, and turns into rust without much effort at all. Gold much prefers more Gold to Oxygen, so for the most part, it doesn't corrode. Metals which have very stable structures in a galvanic (electrochemical) sense don't tend to bond to Oxygen very often. Gold and Silver are two of these metals.

You take the metal ores - in the case of bronze, you need 1 copper + 1 tin for every bronze bar - to a furnace. Alternately, you can use the "Superheat Item" magic spell.
