3. Gold testing through biting
We all have heard that you can tell if the gold is real by biting it. They say that gold is a soft metal and if you bite it hard enough, you will see teeth marks in it. Actually, there are more metals that as soft as gold and have the same color. If you trust this myth you can one day buy a different metal instead of gold!
4. Indestructible diamonds
That’s myth number one. People think that diamonds are unbreakable. In fact, they can chip or crack. The truth is that the structure of the diamond is different from that of other materials. Diamonds are stronger than any other mineral and can cut or scratch most other materials. However this feature does not make them indestructible.
