It is dense, precious, and has a bright yellow color. It is a good conductor of heat and electricity and is soft and very malleable and ductile. It is the malleablist (if that's even a word!) metal known to man. An ounce of it can be pounded in to a sheet of 300 square feet. In thin sheets it transmits green light. It is used in printed circuits and semiconductors.
