>Tungsten isn't exactly cheap or common either is it?
(Actually, tungsten is very easily available!
Well, Viking stated the figures below:
>> Gold: 19.3 g/cm^3, $8820/kg
>> Tungsten: 19.25 g/cm^3, $110/kg
ie, tungsten is barely one percent of the cost of gold.
Thus, a Viking-Fake(tm) Tunsgetn one ounce bar of tungsten would cost
about $30.)
