AU5492 Gold Foil/Sheet/Disc

Gold Foil/Sheet/Disc Description

Gold Foil is a very thin sheet of gold, produced by hammering or rolling. Due to the exceptional malleability of gold, it can be beaten into extremely thin sheets without breaking. Gold foil can be so thin that it becomes semi-transparent. Gold is highly resistant to corrosion and oxidation, which makes gold foil durable and capable of maintaining its luster over time. Gold is an excellent conductor of electricity, making it useful in electronic applications.
