2. Gold in the electronic device.
We use a small amount of gold in
almost all electronic devices. This
includes: cell phones, personal
assistants, calculators, GPS units,
among others. Most large electronic
applications such as televisions also
contain gold. This is because gold is a
very efficient conductor, which can
carry tiny currents and remain free
of corrosion.
3. Gold in space technology
The conductive properties of gold offer the
best efficiency in the circuits of space
equipment.
Many parts of these vehicles are equipped
with gold coated to reflect the radiation and
stabilize the temperature.
Without this protection, the interiors of the
ships and other vehicles would absorb many
amounts of heat.
