Gold is very malleable
Gold is a very soft metal, around 2 on a hardness scale of 10, with specific gravity of 19.32, and tensile strength 19,000psi, which is one of the factors giving gold its tremendous malleability-meaning that it can be pounded, twisted, rolled or squeezed into all kinds of different shapes without breaking apart. In fact, gold can be hammered so thin that it is translucent, and yet still remain intact as a solid sheet of gold. It has been said that such sheets of gold can be produced so thin that it would take about 200,000 of them stacked one on top of the other to make a pile just one inch tall!
