similar in meaning to black gold, but instead of referring to crude oil, refers to nacho cheese coming out of the ground.
Person 1: "Have you heard of nacho cheese bubbling out of the ground?"

To describe something or a situation that is classic and/or priceless, like the ability of gold to stand the test of time and hold value. The term can be used to describe some epic adventure, great conquest,or just as a sarcastic remark to someone to patronize them.

An element found on the periodic table under
atomic number: 79
symbol: Au
atomic weight/atomic mass: 196.96655g
group name: Coinage metal
group: 11
period: 6
block: d-block
CAS Registry ID: 7440-57-5
Standard state: solid at 298 K
Colour: gold
Classification: Metallic
Availability: gold is available in many forms including wire, foil, and bars.
Gold is usually alloyed in jewellery to give it more strength, and the term carat describes the amount of gold present (24 carats is pure gold). It is estimated that all the gold in the world, so far refined, could be placed in a single cube 60 ft. on a side. It is metallic, with a yellow colour when in a mass, but when finely divided it may be black, ruby, or purple.
It is the most malleable and ductile metal; 1 ounce (28 g) of gold can be beaten out to 300 square feet. It is a soft metal and is usually alloyed to give it more strength. It is a good conductor of heat and electricity, and is unaffected by air and most reagents.
The most common gold compounds are auric chloride (AuCl3) and chlorauric acid (HAuCl4). A mixture of one part nitric acid with three of hydrochloric acid is called aqua regia (because it dissolved gold, the King of Metals). It is unaffected by air and most reagents. It is found free in nature and associated with quartz, pyrite and other minerals. Two thirds of the world's supply comes from South Africa, and 2/3 of USA production is from South Dakota and Nevada. Gold is found in sea water, but no effective economic process has been designed (yet) to extract it from this source.
It would not normally be necessary to make gold in the laboratory as it is readily available commercially. The most romantic way to extract gold is by panning it out from a stream in some pleasant valley but most such sources are now depleted. Panning relies upon the density of gold (which is very high) being much greater than that of the sand and other particulates. It therefore settles to the bottom of the pan.
Today, more often than not, gold is extracted from ores. These ores often contain relatively little gold. Some of these processes cause environmental concern. The ore is crushed to a powder so as to expose the small gold particles. These are dissolved by treatment of the rock with cyanide solution in air. The result of this is a gold cyanide complex. Addition of zinc powder to the resulting solution precipitates out the gold.

Gold: A fun, loving, outgoing person. Always cheerful and there for you when you need her the most. A Gold is a good friend that you will never want to lose. She's an amazing person inside and out.
