PDA scanner notes
- "Culturally relevant motivational fact: the Mongolian Free States took inspiration from 'ninja miners', historical goldseekers whose green pans looked like cartoon turtles."
- "Gold is a conductive, corrosion-resistant feedstock for advanced electronics."

Databank Entry
Gold (Au), element
Shares many properties with copper and silver.
Highly conductive and ductile. Can form atom-thin wires. Critical for corrosion-resistant electronics, especially in humid environmnents. Also useful for shielding spacesuits and spacecraft against heat. Rare—tends to sink to the core of planets during formation. If you cannot access the core of the planet, search for surface deposits formed by bacterial accumulation.
