  【科普你：關于倫敦奧運獎牌】

  The medals weigh 375-400g and are 85mm across and 7mm thick.The gold medal consists of just over one per cent actual gold. The rest is made up of 92.5 percent silver and 6.16 per cent copper.

  倫敦奧運會的獎牌重375-400克，直徑85毫米，厚7毫米。金牌中僅僅包含百分之一成分的真正黃金，其余部分由92.5%的銀和6.16%的銅組成。

  The 2012 gold medallion is therefore only worth about 410 as raw metal although the real value would, of course, be much higher if the medals were ever sold.

  2012倫敦奧運會的金牌從金屬價值來看，只值410英鎊。當然金牌的實際出售價格要遠高于此。

  For a silver medal the gold is replaced with more copper, meaning the final product is worth around 210.

  一塊銀牌中黃金的成分被更多的銅取代，它的金屬總價值在210英鎊左右。

  But the bronze medal is 97 percent copper, 2.5 percent zinc and 0.5 percent tin and is therefore only worth about 3.

  而一塊銅牌中，97%的成分是銅，還有2.5%的鋅和0.5%的錫，一塊銅牌的金屬價值僅有約3英鎊。
