Where has all the GOLD gone?

Gold doesnt corrode like copper or tarnish like silver, so its actually more efficient to use gold in electronics otherwise all the conductors that make your computer chips work will stop working after a relatively short period of use

Not reactive, malleable, and a reasonable conductor making it an excellent material for electrical contacts
Also a good reflector for infrared light, so it finds use as a mirror material in certain laser systems

Top kek, Gold $1,000,000 eoy
Screencap this you fucking ugly niggers

Well, not that short. Copper is still by far the most widely used.

For entirely different purposes you fuckwit, copper is used for wiring, gold is used for microchips because the strain to surface area ratio is several orders of magnitude higher. Given how expensive gold is, if they didn't need to use it, they wouldn't use it for thse parts

The jews took it

Oh. Well, i guess you know better.

Yeah, gold is mostly for contacts on removeable items
Most copper is passivated/insulated so oxidation doesn't matter over useful life
