    Purple Gold (AuAI2) is a formula of 78.5% gold & 21.5% aluminum, for those curious. "@NileRed" does a very good video on this. ...There is also black (cobalt), pink, and green gold as well as the blue & purple gold discussed here in this video. Thank you to the maker of this video for mentioning the significant difference of color based on the light present (and angle) while observing the color tone.

      I have some purple gold too and saw Nile Red's video! In fact he briefly shows the google page with my purple gold on the top. ua-cam.com/video/9iWSGru3NuI/v-deo.html Black, pink and green gold are just alloys. Purple and blue gold are intermetallic compounds.

    Yes, I would also like to know if there is any master of the very interesting craft…it is a real niche in the market! I am presupposing that the properties that results from the creation of the compound are not suitable i.e durable for jewellery, but heck, how much impact will earrings receive lol, I understand for a watch it could be problematic but not all jewellery. Very interested to know more.

    According to the precious metal dealer I work with, Rhodium was worth significantly more than Iridium in 2023, and it's value has averaged $6,000 per ounce.

    • @KickAssScience92
      @KickAssScience92 4 місяці тому

      Rhodium is currently priced at $4350 per troy ounce as of 17 June 2024. The price remained between $4000 and $4500 over the last year and a half. Iridium currently stands at $4750 per troy oz. Rhodium was the best investment choice I have ever made, buying it when no one loved it at $600 per oz back in 2016 and it jumped to nearly $30000 an ounce a few years ago. Iridium currently holds the title of the most expensive precious metal so far in 2024.
