- In its natural state, pure gold is in the form of nuggets or grains. In certain forms, it's not very useful.
- Gold must be melted and specific equipment must be used to mould it into the required forms.
- The gold is melted and boiled in crucibles, and the materials used for crucibles, moulds, and castings must be able to survive the high temperatures required to melt and boil gold.
- Gold must be melted at 1,948 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Because gold is inherently too soft to be employed in practical applications, additional alloy metals such as copper, zinc, and silver are added during the melting process to make it stronger. Gold's boiling point is 5,173 degrees Fahrenheit.
