I was thinking about this while I was on the bus the other day. Diamond I
can see going for a significant amount (it has a fair few industrial and
commercial uses)
Diamond is a bad example. Thank DeBeers.
though the only use I could come up with for gold was
the
plating on edge connectors...
Plating on a whole lot of other things as well.
Didn't manage to think of a single commercial or
industrial use for silver at all...
Plating and contacts. I think (much) more silver is used by industry than gold.
Wiki for more info.
