Group 11 element can also lead to the accumulation of these metals in body tissue; the results are the irreversible but apparently harmless pigmentation conditions known as chrysiasis and argyria respectively. Due to being short lived and radioactive, roentgenium has no biological use but it is likely extremely harmful due to its radioactivity. Group 11 element Group 11, by modern IUPAC numbering, is a group of chemical elements in the periodic table, consisting of copper (Cu), silver (Ag), and gold (Au). Roentgenium (Rg) is also placed in this group in the periodic table, although no chemical experiments have yet been carried out to

Minor metals do not have a real exchange, and are not traded on the London Metal Exchange (LME). Two characteristics are regularly associated with minor metals: (1)
