Mercury to Gold: Alchemist Dream in Modern Lab
Prof H Nagaoka of the Institute of Physical Research at Tokyo University received an honorary DSc from Cambridge for transforming mercury into gold via violent electrical discharge. The achievement, while scientifically brilliant, is not yet commercially viable as producing gold by this method remains far more costly than gold’s value. Over the past two decades, atomic structure studies have advanced, with the atom viewed as the smallest building block. Mercury’s heavier atomic weight 80 versus gold’s 79 underpins the challenge, as the process aims to alter the mercury nucleus by discharging electric particles that break off parts of it.
