Also, can we get a caption that's a little more descriptive? I'd like to see how it was made, without searching through the article. Also, I have another problem. The picture is only featured in the infobox and is very tiny. It's a very small part of the article and if this is to be a FP, needs to be fixed. (I still support it, if it's not changed, a weak support, sorry, but that's a major problem for me. FPs need to be FPs and need a larger focus in the article).

Info: please place the image in the gold article to an other place. It is made via a chemical transport reaction: 2 Au + 3 Cl2 at ~300-350°C --> to 2 AuCl3 and decomposition at ~700-800°C return to: 2Au + 3Cl2. I add this fact also to the image description. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 09:58, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
