It is also very malleable; one grain can be beaten out to cover an area of 56.75 square inches. Thin gold-leaf appears green by transmitted light. The red color of ruby gla is due to metallic gold in an extreme state of division. Gold does not oxidize or tarnish in the air, and is not acted upon by oxygen or water at any temperature; it is not di olved by sulphuric, nitric, or hydrochloric acid, but is di olved by aqua regia, a mixture of nitric and hydrochloric acids. Gold crystallizes in cubes, octahedra, and other forms belonging to a regular system. Gold forms two series of salts, Aurous and Auric (q. v.); it has been detected in sea water. Goldis extracted from the quartz ore by pulverizing it, and adding mercury containing a small quantity of sodium; the amalgam is then heated to drive off the mer- cury; auriferous pyrites are roasted to drive off sulphur and arsenic before they are treated with the amalgam. Gold can be purified by melting it along with borax in a clay crucible, glazed inside with borax, and pa ing chlorine gas through the melted metal by means of a tobacco-pipe stem; the other metals are converted into chlorides, which rise to the surface. When the operation is finished, the gold is allowed to cool, and the fused chlorides poured off. Pure gold is prepared by di olving the metal in a mixture of nitric and hydrochloric acids: the solution is evaporated to get rid of the nitric acid, then diluted with water and filtered; the gold is then precipitated by ferrous sulphate. 2AuCl3+ be separated from silver by heating it with two and a half times its weight of concentrated sulphuric acid, specific gravity 1.84, till no more SO2 is given off.

In the Ural Mountains the drift is Newer Pliocene, having in it bones of the mammoth, .; in California it is of two different ages, but both, geologically viewed, comparatively recent; when in veins, it is more frequently found in the paleozoic than in the secondary or tertiary strata. In most cases the veins are near plutonic rocks. 5. Hist.: Gold is mentioned in the Bible as early as Gen. ii. 12. The Hebrew word is zahab , from zahab to shine, to be brilliant. As the names of gold in the Aryan languages (Lat. aurum, Gr. chrysos, differ from this, gold may perhaps not have been discovered till after the separation of the Aryan and Semitic races. 6.
