Gold Power
The meaning of gold as a very important substance is almost completely the result of the productive mind of mankind. The remarkable connection of gold with wealth and power is a result of the insight that man has of it, instead of its essential worth. However this does not belittle the huge power of the enchantment this wonderful and precious metal has placed over mankind.
Gold in itself is only one of a lot of chemical elements. In its real form gold is soft, has a yellow color to it, and is a malleable metal more commonly known in science as the atomic number 79, it is also known as Au, which comes from the Latin name for gold, aurum, it is also part of group 1B in the periodic table - along with its brothers silver and platinum.
While it is true that gold is not common in the world, it can actually be found in its comparatively pure form in nature in certain countries and states and not only is it pleasing to the eye but it is to work on. It is possible that the artistic lure it has leads us to understand why gold was one of the first precious metals that man became interested in and remained interested in till this very day.
